hi Buddy
It really depends on what you're using it for and the environment you're using it in. Phantom is right, you can't really compare the two since they are two different things.

The .NET framework does allow to do some great things, including being able to using an assortment of languages, server controls, etc. However, it does have some drawbacks - bloated code, performance, dependence on ISS and on Microsoft products in general. If you're in a corporate environment that's already surrounded by Microsoft technologies and have a large development team that may want to have the luxury of using several different languages to create one application, then .NET may be the best choice.

Personally, I chose PHP for many reasons. First and foremost, the language is open source, meaning you have the open source community helping you and working with you. Finding help for PHP I discovered is MUCH easier than finding help for .NET. People who are experts -- This message may have been cut off and the rest will only be shown to members.
