Re: How to argue with ASP people...

I was happy as an ASP developer - you can use MSXSL for XML
processing, ADO for database, and the file scripting object for file
processing. The weakness shows up when you want to do something that
Microsoft has not built into ASP or JavaScript or the COM objects I
just listed. You're stuck writing your own COM object in VB or C++. I
was in a C++ shop and writing C++ COM components for use in ASP is
just horrible. PHP has a much larger library.

Try to find something you need to do that will require you to write a
COM component if you use ASP, and it's built into PHP.
