The web world has a variety of tools to choose from for the web development purposes. It has been an age old battle between ASP.NET and Php. Each has its own pros and cons. However, one of them, have stood a clear winner. The question – which one to choose, has been quite a confusing one because each language has its own sets of advantages and disadvantages. Their usage depends on your requirement be it price, security or speed.

Php was launched in 1995 and since then it has been used for developing dynamic web pages and robust web applications. It works with HTML to display the dynamic elements on the page. PHP only parses code within its delimiters and anything outside its delimiters is sent directly to the output and not parsed by PHP. Php is the fourth popular computer programming language in the world after JAVA, C and VISUAL BASIC.

Php can be used for command-line scripting and client-side GUI applications. It is easy to learn and can be deployed on most web servers, many operating systems and platforms, and can be used with many relational database management systems (RDBMS). Php is absolutely free of cost as it is open source. It can be embedded with HTML code and is compatible with Apache, IIS, Oracle and Sybase.

PHP strength lies mostly in LAMP. The LAMP architecture has become popular in the Web industry as a way of deploying inexpensive, reliable, scalable, secure web applications. PHP is commonly used as the P in this bundle alongside Linux, Apache and MySQL. It also works with several lesser-known servers, including Alex Belits’ fhttpd, Microsoft’s Personal Web Server, AOLServer, and Omnicentrix’s Omniserver application server. Php also has its own drawbacks also. PHP’s type checking is very loose, potentially causing problems. The variables in PHP are not really considered to have a type. Finally, for some reason big corporations feel that if they’re not paying for something, then it’s not worth buying.

Its name comes from Microsoft’s old ASP technology, they made with the .NET Framework, and the CLR allows you to use other languages for back end processing: typically Visual Basic.NET or C#.

ASP.NET’s has brilliant object oriented features, and it is known because of its flexibility. The CLR allows C# programmers and VB.NET programmers to work on the same project, or switch languages half way through. They need not rewrite all of the old classes. The .NET class library is organized into inheritable classes based around particular tasks, such as working with XML or image manipulation, so a lot of the more common tasks have been already handled for you. Visual Studio .NET is a massive development IDE that will save tons of time of your coding. It has built in debugging along with IntelliSense, which allows for auto-completion of methods and variables so you don’t have to memorize everything. However, ASP.NET took has its own disadvantages, it is extremely expensive. It requires either better server or more servers.
