I think that is almost a religious war type of discussion...
Short answer (as it applies to me at least) If all I am doing is getting
data from a DB and displaying it in the browser, there is little reason to
do Javascript.
past few years. Zend (which is PHP, not Javascript) is also an
alternative.
Personally my preference would be
1- Pascal
2- Python
3- PHP
PHP can do absolutely everything I need/want; the difference is that I want
something which lends itself more easily to well organized and structured
coding. Also When I work on php it always feels like work.. even if it
something I am doing for fun. It is one of those subjective things... the
reason why there are so many languages and tools out there.
