Asim, PHP and ASP are not better than each other. The main difference is there inherent utilization of the operating system they were "really" built for. ASP for IIS and PHP for Apache-based.
That being said, it is really determinant on the webserver you have or are wanting host a website. Both of them can be cross-platformed, per-say, but generally speaking IIS works best on Windows systems. Apache, fortunately, does not have that limitation and as such probably has the broadest scope of usability. ASP is probably a better robust web framework, mostly cause it allows access to the .Net framework with little ease but tends to be restricted to just Windows O/S. ASP tends to have pre-built controls that have default behaviors designed in, so you wont have to code a whole control just what you need, as a beginner. PHP is good if you tend to have a cloud of webservers that have mixed O/S and therefore you can easily host one website across a web- farm. Catch is you will have to build everything from scratch with no default behaviors to assume. Lastly, it really depends on what your style is. If you like a wholly generic site that is built from the users first session hit, then PHP is the way to go as the website is loaded every single time. If you like to have a light-weight coding environment where you can just build a page through HTML then seperate the code into a code file then ASP would probably be the way to go. Otherwise, it really depends which flavor you prefer. On Nov 12, 1:29 am, Asim Khan <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi everybody, > > I am beginner in web app development....
