Thanks to those who helped me decide on a scripting language to learn.  Perl has been 
very helpful.  Now, I am interested in web scripting.

Why would I want to use perl vs php?  What alternatives might there be?  

Why should I learn php, when I just got a handle on perl (without the cgi/web 
scripting portion of course)?

Is php similar in structure to perl and c?

I currently do html editting with vim.

How popular are the server portions among webhosts?  My impression is that a lot of 
webhosts support php, but *everyone* supports perl.

I appreciate your input.

Cory
