No thank you. HTML, CSS, PHP and MySQL are my chosen tools for my
systems.
I have written 20+ complete systems using these and found them to be
fast and very effective. Everyone who has seen my HTML, CSS, PHP, MySQL
systems has been favourably impressed (me too!). MySQL is a fast
database system. Never ever used a SQL join or view, just well designed
databases with carefully planned tables - that is the art of good
programming.
Ajax/Jquery is someone else's parametrised programming language. It adds
complexity and overhead to what is fundamentally a very basic task. Ajax
etc. seem to appeal to people who are not good (or natural) programmers.
Ajax etc. is like programming with boxing gloves on and taking several
weeks to do it. If they want to use it, let them.

I have been using MySQL on Linux for about 4 years and never had a
problem. What security issues has PHP ?
