So far my sites have been in PHP and/or xHTML with CSS... with bits of Javascript where needed.

Peer pressure has convinced me to have a look at RoR recently. Not bad at all but I'm not looking forward to the learning curve. Still though, even if I don't end up adopting it full time, learning another language at this point can only be a good thing, so I'll persevere.

In work it's all .net but I just deal with the front end. My own projects would be the above.

Well the .NET'ers are there just not in this community. I think the type of personality that works with open source languages are more likely to be on this forum... ( an off the wall statement I'm sticking to)

PHP / Java for me.

I think anyone learning PHP before learning any other programming language is not making proper scalable organized code. They simply don't have the theory behind what they are trying to do.

An organised Software Engineer can make very scalable software/web applications with PHP. Thats not to say PHP is without its faults. It's about using the tools they have at their disposal in a proper way and that doesn't just mean using Object Orient programming.

I think it's important to distinguish between a PHP programmer and a person who uses it for web scripting. While they are both using PHP they are doing two very different jobs.

Tried a little bit of RoR and looks good but the quote that you can do something in 10 lines that PHP can does in 100 is right but what happens is you want to configure it to do something different to its default way of doing things. Now all of a sudden it takes just as long for you to do what you wanted to do in PHP it just means you are coming from the top down instead of the bottom up. Any real web project will require allot of this so I think this common statement over sells it a bit for someone coming to it for the first time.

I sometimes think that maybe I should change to .NET/C# as there are a lot of good things happening with it and its more commercially acceptable for large business. Ultimately a good .NET developer is going to make more money than a good PHP developer from a career perspective. As a company with the shortage of PHP developers in Ireland it maybe a decision I have to make sooner rather than later.

...end rant
