Okay, but it defenitly says this: snip from=http://www.oracle.com/technology/pub/articles/hull_asp.html The latest incarnation of ASP, ASP.NET, is not completely backward-compatible with previous versions of ASP, as it is a complete rewrite of the software. Previous ASP technology actually has a lot more in common with PHP than with ASP.NET, which is a complete framework for building Web applications. One of the principal features of this model is the flexibility to choose your programming language. ASP.NET works with scripted languages such as VBScript, JScript, Perlscript, and Python, as well as compiled languages such as VB, C#, C, Cobol, Smalltalk, and Lisp. The new framework uses the common language runtime (CLR); your language source is compiled into Microsoft Intermediate Language code, which the CLR then executes. /snip This text says, that ASP .NET is a complete framework for building web applications. All the other stuff maybe is some marketing strategy for selling Oracle software but i don't take care about that. BTW, i think there is some more usefull information in this article (Anyway, i will not buy Oracle software). Sorry for starting this flamewar.

RE: [PHP] PHP vs. ASP
There is one minor difference that caused a major change in structure of the two scripting language. PHP offers the isset() function but ASP don't. in a way there are the pros and cons. For PHP, you can create the whole site in one page, even though that would not be advisable. Because of isset(), you can get input and display output using the same page. However, this would result in security loop holes. Whereas for ASP, without the isset() keyword, ASP structures are usually made up of at least 2 pages. One for receiving input and the other for display the result, output. This of cos patches the security holes. In a way, PHP provides a simpler way for programmer.

So no dynamic includes for ASP. Ofcourse there are other features that PHP has that ASP does not, and vice versa.

Re: [PHP] php vs asp
If ASP is as slow with MySQL as it is with native Microsoft DBs (Access, SQL Server), then you may be in trouble. I did some work for a friend who owns a hosting company on a site done in ASP and the worst part of the whole thing was testing because the database was so slow. He's got some high-end servers, too, so it wasn't the system slowing it down. I have my personal site with him and it seems to load stuff from MySQL about 2-5 times as fast as the ASP-based sites load from SQL Server. My two cents.

Hi Something I dont think anyone's mentioned yet is that PHP is also great for running stuff from the command line - e.g. for background scripts for a site or mailing scripts or whatever... In case that doesnt sound so useful, it measn you can use all the same libraries for the online site as for the offline processing bits :) -- Shane On Wednesday 09 Jan 2002 1:43 pm, Jake wrote: Hello there, I need some help. I have to do a technical report(about 2200 words) comparing PHP to ASP. I have already decided to make PHP the winner becasue it is superior. But I am kinda stumped on what areas to compare the two. If you could help me out in suggesting some possible areas of comparison. Keeping in mind that I need about the same amount of info on both PHP and ASP. Also if you could point me in the right direction by including some web links that deal with the topic.
