In most cases it boils down to:

php ---(free) MySQL --*nix servers.
asp.net --(costly) SQL Server, etc. --Windows servers

I found php VERY easy to learn (coming from the C and Java background) and
very easy to use. Also, there is a site, www.php.net, that is fantastic --
even for veteran php programmers.

By contrast, I had to push and poke my way through my first learning
experience with asp.net, vb.net and if it weren't for people like Mark and
others here in this group, I still wouldn't be there. There is nothing to
compare with www.php.net for referencing. What took me four days to do in
php, took me two and a half weeks to duplicate in asp/vb net. Granted, I am
experienced in php and am learning asp/vb net.

There are many nice features in both.

The main advantage of php was:

- It's supossed to be fre.
- Hosting used to be cheaper than .net

Nowdats, you can develop good web applications using Visual Studio Express
for Web Developers (free), and there are a lot of cheap hostings for ASP .net
(godaddy, ASP .net discount...)

For the record, ASP.NET can use MySQL just as easily as it can use SQL
Server, and ASP.NET runs quite happily on Linux via Mono...

Visual Web Developer Express is perfectly capable of producing sophisticated
ASP.NET apps and is totally free, as is SQL Server Express...
Granted, I am experienced in php and am learning asp/vb net.
And that's the thing...

It's always like that when people who are experienced in one technology move
over to a new technology which is completely different, even though it does
the same thing...

Once the mindset has shifted, it all becomes clear.

This is especially true of experienced ASP Classic developers coming to
ASP.NET for the first time - I've even seen ASP.NET code where ADO has been
referenced by COMInterop...

Why? I've seen you write this before. Frankly, I have been rather pleased
with them -- and especially their prompt tech support which is 24/7. Now if
you want to talk about Dreamhost...... .. :-(

Mark, do you keep a library of URLs with which to answer questions? You
seem to always have a few at your fingertips.
