First off, I wouldn't go comparing one language to another as "better" (a jihad has broken out on another list between Perl and PHP, substituting belief for anything remotely resembling a civilized and intelligent discussion), but if you want to convince them about the merits of PHP, look up the news stories about Yahoo abandoning its own proprietary language for PHP. Also, if any of your clients have experience with Perl, you can use the comparison about regular expression handling there. You can also refer to http://www.php.net/usage.php for a description of the popularity of PHP.

Hi all, I'm not too sure if this is the right place to get my answers but I really need to know this: How can I convince my clients that PHP is really good? I mean not a lot of non-programmers have heard of PHP language. Most of them only heard of things like C/C++, ASP and the like. So, how can I prove to them that PHP is a much better language to use? Can anyone point me to the right resources for me to show and prove to my clients? Thanks a lot and sorry if this is the wrong place to ask this question.
