Hi, I'm new to PHP and i work as a web developer, my boss came to me with a new project. I don't know if this is even possiable, and i'm not looking for anyone to tell me how to do it, i was just wondering if there were any good books, or places online where i could start. Alright here is the scenario;

I need to secure a section of the web by means of a smartcard, i need php to interact with the card and essentially verify that a user is or is not allowed in.

Is this possiable? or should I be looking into another language? PERL?

thanks in advance.

oh the card connects via usb if that makes difference.

Java has quite a handy API for smartcards and similar
