I have been programming for many years with ASP and have done some
coding with ASP.NET and I know exactly what you mean. ASP.NET Its too
complicated for web development and ASP is too far behind and not
supported.
Yes, PHP has many similarities to ASP but PHP is much more flexible in
its capabilites libraries and on the language controls such as arrays
and classes. ASP.NET is a monster. Like Java.
Slight differences between ASP and PHP. PHP has no globals.asa. There
is no persistence at the application level. You have to do that
yourself by including a file and use user sessions. No big deal.
PHP has many free libraries that normally you would have to pay to use
in ASP. It is definetely the way to go.
