I have been an avid user of php, I have even made my own website using PHP. It is so good that big sites such as mine use it. For all serious developers, PHP is the best choice for all php programming.

That's not saying a whole lot :-). I know what you meant though and I agree that PHP is great.

You're absolutely right. I tried to do my PHP programming in BASIC once. Bad idea.

Congratulations PHP

On a slightly different topic, one wishlist item that I would like to see in PHP is Abstract Database Access.

Actually, what I'd like to see is bitwise-operations on strings - my Ogg Vorbis decoder written in PHP is currently languishing at just a bare-bones Ogg demuxer 'cos unpacking all the Vorbis packets proved just too fiddly...

Slow to catch...

I was born clairvoyant and was writing PHP code in womb. BTW, if anyone wants I can give you a heads up on Linux 6.6.6 and Windows WTF. Those come out AFTER the apocolypse.
