Is there other way? because geocouch does not support PHP language and PHP

I wanted a perfect ending.
Now I've learned, the hard way, that some poems don't rhyme, and some
stories don't have a clear beginning, middle, and end.
Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment and making
the best of it, without knowing what's going to happen next......Farewell
Team !
