I have been using PHP because I did not want the server to be tied
to MS. Its also very popular. I started off with Delphi for PHP.
But the investment in learning it was wasted. The only thing I use
it for is for debugging now. There is no vcl in sight.<br>
<br>
Had t learn PHP, javascript, HTML and CSS. I think you have to , if
you want it efficient. Mine has to be as I am targeting millions of
users not just hundreds. It is my spare time project too. Check it
out if you want 7bfaces.com. You have to signup to see it and
note its work in progress.<br>

anyone was using Delphi successfully on good advanced web

pretty good argument but for some reasons I'm resisting that

I mean, you're learning this for fun or for having a job? Not
sure how<br>
many RoR jobs there are in NZ.<br>
<br>
Some years ago I heard that most Delphi programmers went to
PHP. The<br>
PHP market in NZ is pretty robust, so that works.<br>
<br>
But if you want to stay in the Microsoft World, C# + ASPX or
whatever<br>
the greatest latest technology is from M$ would be the best
fit.<br>
