I know that you can build a web crawler in PHP and that you can rank pages buy keywords and how many pages are linked to a page, so as far as a web crawler goes can PHP pretty much do anything C++ can do?

in this context, yes and often written far easier.. not necessarily faster running, but often a lot easier to write.

Thanks
