what type of programming language do u prefer? IMO, both have advantages and disadvantages. php is easier to maintain, while XHTML is easier to build, i think. at least this is how it works for me. how about u?

[harsha]

i m not perfect in those both language ,how i know i prefer PHP

They are two completely different language types, and you can't thus compare them. XHTML is a client-side coding language with no variables, while PHP is a server-side programming language. You would be better off by comparing HTML and XHTML or ASP and PHP.

I personally use PHP to output my XHTML.

They co exist. XHTML can help your site look and layout while PHP can provide the dynamis. Basically I use XHTML for developing WAP sites combined with PHP. Of course there be some configuration on your webse for your WAP site to work.

Same as VP here, they're two totally different languages for two separate aspects of development.

Personally I prefer PHP to build and develop both websites and web applications. I've come to appreciate the real power of database driven sites and the added flexibility they give when it comes to further development. The ability to add a level of depth and interactivity in a site these days is crucial to its success.

Naturally XHTML is generally what is generated by PHP these days, and though powerful on its own, doesn't cut it for a lot of applications. Learn PHP and generate your XHTML on the fly - it's much slicker and allows more to be achieved than you ever thought possible.

I prefer PHP to develop both websites and web applications. I think only PHP can provide the dynamis.

[Djzzero]

I perfer PhP becuase it has a good way to build websites and programs. I don't really like XHTML maybe because I don't know much about it. but that's my imo.

Since I started learning programming and coding through HTML and XML, of course I prefer XHTML over any other language.

HTML is a very clean way to make a webpage - it dose not allow improperly nested elements, everything must be within the root HTML element, and all tags must be closed.
It's a web programmers dream.

for you kind information PHP is server side script which is run on webserver, XHTML is a Client side language, simple as HTML, XHTML is use to design static websites and PHP is used for dynamic web pages...
