Just tell your teacher: Java isn't more popular than PHP as _web_-language ;) I think too, that he actually meant javascript, which is indeed a very popular client-side language. But javascript and PHP has different use-cases, thus saying "one is more popular" doesn't tell you anything about whether they are in competition against each other, or not (hint: they arent : :D). > > Cheers, > > > tedd > > _______________ > tedd sperling > t...@sperling.com > > > > > > > -- > PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) > To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php > > -- github.com/KingCrunch
