Yes it is off topic but you started it!

PHP5's OO is a lot better and you could build a good framework in it
(it is probably your framework which is good not the language)

Some things in PHP5 are great Autoload for class refs etc, I'd not 
dismiss PHP.

As you know its not the language which it at fault with HTML dev, its 
generally HTML itself but every time I see another golden bullet dev 
platform (Ruby on rails for example) I have a sly chuckle

The best bit is that you can make PHP 5 look a lot like Delphi
