try doing my .sig in PHP :-)
IMHO PHP is just "good" at web programming, nothing else.
But then, even what it's good at, it's bad.
I think its no good inviting people to mix HTML and code arbitrarily.
perl is far more than a web programming language.

that depends on what you're up to, or what you're in.
Programming PHP is a pain if you know perl... consider
PHP arrays, and compare the OO concepts of both languages.
> Any thoughts?
since there ain't anything that can't be done in perl -
I would leave PHP for it's primary use - personal home page -
It's harder to write a web app in perl - if you are a beginner
and have just learned html, that is. Nut that's also the reason
there is such a lot of bad PHP code around. See php-nuke, phpMyAdmin
etc. and security flaws.
