stuck:) deciding what I should use for implementation.
I would definitely prefer Java Servlets, but it is
very expensive to host servlets,

Hmm... Let's see;Java is a full-fledge, totally OOP

Say you configure apache to pre-fork 5 server
processes, what you are saying implies that you can
only handle 5 concurrent requests?? can you please
explain this more?
That's exactly what
I mean, for example say you have
an html that consists of blocks... Making every block
an include is clean, but this time, php engine has to
read all of these includes, and parse the html+php and
compile/run php everytime a request is made??? I am
not sure about this?
I wouldn't say it was
ie. don't necessarily use 1 file per block, create functions that are
defined in a single file and call those instead of including a new file.
How do you echo your html, do you put the html in your functions and
escape the double quotes? There is some extra load there echoing all the
html?
