Richard, php is loaded as an apache module, so it has the feature of being one engine handling eerything which makes some stuff easy such as session tracking and data exchanges. It was also created from the ground up to be a web thing, thus sporting lots of libraries that helps building web stuff. With Rev, we have marvelous tools for the desktop but we had to coin our own web libraries.
php has no scriptLimits, so it can read a chunk of text with mixed code in it and execute it in place, this is the way php developers usually code, they create web page templates with logic mixed with presentation. This is not the most elegant way that the über-pro-developers do but it makes good for quick prototyping and templating. With Revolution we can't do that, as soon as we reach an 11 statements chunck, we're dead. If we had something like mod_revolution and no scriptLimits, we could conquer the web in no time.
