Alas, this is pretty much the case today. However, there is a JSR in progress that is excplicitly designed to define a standard way that scripting languages and Java can interact (and share access to Java objects, and the HttpSession instance, along the way). Keep an eye out for progress on: http://jcp.org/en/jsr/detail?id=223 Note that the Zend folks are actively involved in this effort, so we can expect that support for PHP in particular should be pretty well planned.
