Hmm, I've never heard of an application that's written in both php and
Java. However, I know of many applications that run on both mysql and
postgresql. For instance phpbb which is the most common MB software is
written in php and runs with either postgresql or mysql. Database
server independence is definitely a goal for most non custom applications.

Take a list of a hundred or so db based projects written in each
language. Correlate it to the db used. It's likely you'll find a
better correlation to the db used than the language.
