Jun 9, 2011 at 6:51 comment added Tom @fender: This might be irrelevant but I would also like you to take a look at Ruby on Rails. Its becoming more and more popular. Its a very good Rapid Application Development tool. It also has strong community support. I am not really a hater of Microsoft but I think its more practical to go for open source Like PHP and Rails.
Jun 9, 2011 at 6:46 comment added Tom @fender: Both ASP.NET and PHP are powerful web building tools. ASP.NET is propriety software while PHP is for free. In my experience, I chose PHP because of hosting issues. U can only host ur ASP.NET site "Windows based web hosting" while a lot of hosting providers are offering support for PHP. And PHP is supported by Windows and Linux.
Jun 8, 2011 at 1:53 comment added Kenneth PHP is hardly a difficult language to learn. SQL is even easier as it is a very small language set (but very powerful). PHP will give you a much greater ability to work on a number of platforms where ASP.net will limit your scope. For example, the web is mostly dominated by *nix servers. While its possible to get ASP.net implementations to run on those servers it isn't likely you'll find one in use. I've been doing web programming for years on many different servers and haven't seen this kind of a set up. Learn PHP and MySQL and AJAX
Jun 8, 2011 at 0:12 comment added Lie Ryan it is possible, you just need to have some .txt files lying around in the server and a javascript heavy page that AJAX those .txt files and compose it into a full page. I wouldn't personally do it client-side, but it is possible.
Jun 7, 2011 at 16:40 comment added fender1901 I know some C#. It was the first language I learned. Do you think it would be easier to go with ASP.NET or PHP + AJAX like you said. I'm a beginner with web development(programming too but i've been working with the basics longer).
