It's certainly not the most popular in Singapore at this time but I use Ruby on Rails because of its elegance!

My impression is that PHP is of high demand, due to its mostly free/open

ASP.NET is (slowly) replacing ASP as the leading Microsoft web technology,
as .NET framework save a lot of work for developers.One using propietary
technology has a lot to consider -- cost, license, etc. Even so, there are
still much demand on ASP solutions today, due to it's lightweight.

Perl is a simple yet powerful language especially when handling large amount
of strings, despite it's age. It is the main language use by bioinformatians
to write bio-tech programs today, since it is easy to learn. Other than
that, I personally recommend PHP, unless one runs on a Windows which ASP
[.NET] might perform better on.

Hope these help abit =D

Hi,

My polytechnic offers a module in its IT course which teaches server-side
web programming in ASP.NET in VB. I am puzzled at the rationale behind this,
because this  means that a ton of money will be spent on Visual Studio when
Perl is perfectly fine for this purpose. I am under the impression that Perl
is the most widely-used CGI language, but it is possible that my school uses
ASP.NET because it's more widely-used in Singapore.
Is it true that the a majority of the industry in Singapore uses ASP.NET
the most for web apps?
Thanks guys.
