I must say, I quite like PHP for its simplicity and ease of use. I like
knowing the "full picture" of things, and thus can envisage web pages much
easier if I can see the HTML around it too. However, you don't need to
embed as much as you think into the actual HTML, that's what "include" and
"requires" is for. :)
But as to speed of writing, my online journal took about 2 days to
implement (http://www.liedra.net/journal) - it's a mysql (I'd have
rathered
postgres but my hosting place didn't have it) db driven journal with full
editing capabilities, etc. I'm planning to niceify it and release it when
I finish some more features (email notification, etc) and make it easy to
edit the default backgounds/settings etc.
I'd love to join in on some webcoding, but I only know PHP (and am
currently learning perl for work, but am still a novice there)... I've
joined the web-devel list anyway :)
If anyone else has some PHP happiness to add here, please do!
