Quite right. As I'm involved in both development, deployment and maintenance, portability and security are key issues. Apache does support ASP, I think, but I don't quite trust that if I can help it. What about Perl? I still like to use it for small, quick jobs.

I usually tell bosses that we use java because it is easy to replicate across multiple hardware as the demand for the app grows (They love thinking about growing demand). Security is an issue too, especially with M$ products (not sure about PHP). How many viruses have we seen in the past few years effecting IIS, Exchange and NT? There are some good whitepapers comparing JSP to other technologies on the JavaSoft site. here's one: Comparing Methods For Server-Side Dynamic Content White Paper http://java.sun.com/products/jsp/jspservlet.html Decisions, Decisions: J2EETM vs. .NET http://www.theserverside.com/resources/article.jsp?l=J2EE-vs-DOTNET --- hanasaki <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > What are your boss' looking for?
