| so forth. Yes some of you are better programmers with one of these
| languages, but I hope you can be objective enough to provide insights
| to possible shortcomings with your specialty as well as its strengths.
| You thoughts on languages you are not so familiar with are acceptable
| as well.

i recommend that you specify *PERTENANT* information whereby a proper
recommendation can be given. as it is, ajax, xml, oracle, and so forth, are
NOT programming lanuguages. describing your physical architecture would be a
good start. another good thing to note would be whether this app would be an
inter or intranet application. what browser(s) would be supported. what are
the bugetary constraints. you know, all those things you left
out...pertenant information. as for what language is best to use to get your
described functionality? any language can do what you want.

do you see the gap to get from your question to a legitimate answer? you
must provide a better bridge.
