well.. it all depends.. i think that PHP is way faster in terms of "speed" than CF and its not that bad to learn.. if you know a little C, PHP will be a breeze.. actually i learned PHP like in a week.. heh. http://www.phpbuilder.com/ check it out.. also i think that php is great if you are using Unix as your base.. it gives you extended capabilities to mess around with the actual system.
BUT.. you cant beat CF when it comes to developing sites in a hurry.. heh.. CF is i think the fastest language to learn and the fastest to implement plus since its now a macromedia product we should see some really cool stuff coming up for it.. ----- Original Message ----- From: "John McCosker" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CF-Talk" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, November 27, 2001 6:19 AM Subject: RE: How much faster to develop in CF v PHP > I have not used PHP, but read about it, (not in depth I must say) > http://www.php.net/ > > It looks similar syntacically to ASP, which I have used to build XML docs > from a recordSet > then send to another server. > > I later did the same procedure in CF and it was a breeze. > > ASP just takes more scripting to do the job. > > In laymans terms, if you want a screwdriver, > do you use the Stanley, or the Phillips. > > jmc > .. > .. > > -----Original Message----- > From: Martin Wright [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Tuesday, November 27, 2001 11:32 AM > To: CF-Talk > Subject: How much faster to develop in CF v PHP > > > Forgive the rookie questions you gurus ;-) > > Trying to evaluate which way I should lean in the future.
