Hey Guys! me here again..............

been doing the HTML design lately and content for our customers and new developments...

but as of late the actual programming has started to rear it's head, so it's teach yourself time, started with asp.net, seems the easiest....... any suggestions in that department????? it's all new so why not

I like PHP myself. Its pretty versatile. I have never cared for perl, although I'm sure there would be many arguments against me saying bad things about perl.

I have never done anything with ASP, so I have no opiion of it.

I am for php as the open source community and open source applications will empower your business.

the issues with the PHP code and viruses?? with the attack on HEDIR awhile ago and in your blog AjiNIMC? how would one prevent such code hijacking while using PHP?

This happens once in a while and you can basically keep your code updated. There are security patches available (most of the time only after attack). This is language independent but sometimes a little more common with open source application.

You should always keep an up to date backup, this is a must. I am happy that hedir also had a good backup to recover from the virus attacks.
