Hi Fellas, Personally I LOVE PHP. It has so much more predefined functions and the web site documentation is awesome. Finding support from MSDN Library is very frustrating and time consuming. I learned how to use PHP from one database-project and their online documentation. With ASP I had to buy a couple books. Everyone moving over to ASP .NET. I don't even want to buy another book to figure it out - I'm very happy with PHP. It was said earlier, but PHP is support by the entire open source community, you can't beat that! One of my biggest issues with ASP was the "Response.Write()" function. If I wanted my string to go on another line so that I could read it better I had to put some extra character at the end of the line. With PHP I don't have to do any of that. I can create a very complex table and simply COPY n PASTE it in PHP's write function, "echo". Beautiful!! Marc F.
