I have to disagree here. Object Pascal seems like a much more suited language for web development. I can use anything from the RTL, FCL, OPF frameworks and Object Pascal language features like inheritance, interfaces etc. - exactly the same as I can in my desktop counterparts. I can reuse the skills of all my developers without having to retrain them in Java, PHP (which version) etc.. We have years and years of Object Pascal code in our toolbox that we can now reuse for the web apps. Oh, and lets not forget that a binary CGI apps runs circles around PHP apps when it comes to speed. -- Regards, - Graeme - _______________________________________________ fpGUI - a cross-platform Free Pascal GUI toolkit http://opensoft.homeip.net/fpgui/ -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lists.lazarus.freepascal.org http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
