Hi Sundaram, PHP is similar in concept to JSP, both allow you embed code into html pages.
PHP is a C like language. The PHP engine is in effect a JIT, so PHP pages run very fast. Also the engine has smaller system requirements the a Java servlet engine. This why many open source web applications use it and many web hosting services support it. Where it falls down (IMHO) is that: * It isn't OO based * It's hard to implement the MVC architecture * It's not Java :) For more info check out: http://www.php.net/manual/en/faq.general.php http://www.php.net/manual/en/faq.languages.php Jonathan -----Original Message----- From: Sundaram Ramasamy [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, 10 January 2003 4:54 p.m. To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [JBoss-user] Why PHP why not JSP?
