Getting Help
Hi,
I find that it is far easier to get help on php code than it is for jsp.
Also, I find that many sites which use jsp (wont mention names)
Are very slow to respond to the user.
Php is fun man
Cheers

Re: Getting Help
Quite true but I think he needs solid reasons and arguments for his case. This is for his academic project. Not sure, "php is fun.." will go down brilliantly. LOLAnarKy wrote:Hi,

i dunno, that would be a hard discussion as both sides could point out good and bad things about each other.
But coming from a php guy, here is what i say.
Go with what YOU know. If you know php better, use it. Otherwise, if it's JSP then go for it.
If you are fluent in both, then you should see and know that php goes together with databases as peanut butter goes with jelly. PHP offers you a wide selection of security, data processing/control, database control, and a more. JSP offers the same flexability, just their code is a bit harder to work with and working with databases isn't nearly as easy as it is with php...
Your main concern is going to be support when you get in a tough spot, finding tutorials that are gonna help you build sold applications, and finding a community willing to help you out in a tough spot. JSP just doesn't have near the community support that PHP has (imo) and to me, that would be worth enough to stay with php.
but that's just the opinoin of a php guy. there are others who would disagree ( and have very legitament arguments to go with them ). but again, it's all about which language you are most comfortable with, and basically which language you think you can rely on to do what you need it to do..and more.
