All the time you are missing one thing my friend, the marketting words "Servlet/jsp/struts is for large application". Those site you are talking about is nothing more than a small/large/medium sized portal type application.
Comparing PHP and Java is a kind of vague idea. We choose technology which will confirm our ROI. for small scale application where u don't need 1000 transactions per hour php is well fitted rather than java. As far as i understand PHP is a kind of cheap technology that can confirm ur ROI for small or even mid scale application but for large application i don't think it will be wellfitted except creating big mess. Personally i like both struts and jsf. jsf have come with the goodies of struts and improved many other side as well. i am not an expert on jsf and have no experiance with it but if jsf is better than struts then jsf should come up to take the place of struts as a better technology. -- -- Rokibul Islam Khan Software Developer On 7/27/05, John Henry Xu <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Craig said:You can't properly measure a technology's overall success on > a single > > criteria like this. > > Craig, you are absolutely right.
