I don't think this would work. But if it did, it's place wouldn't be inside the language. Either in an IDE or in a PHP-application. PHP often is used for skinning a website, btw. But if there were a good idiot-proof IDE, it would definately help these people. It would have to be free (beer), of course. People who spend 2,50€ a month on webspace won't spend a fortune on an IDE. On the other hand, you lose a lot of flexibility this way. At some point, people will have to touch the code. And there should be as few obstacles as possible. > I can absolutely understand your argumentation (which you forgot to CC to > the list, by the way) and being a regular to PHP-DE (german PHP users > mailinglist), I am also in touch with people you described.
