    Hi.. friend,

    What are your opinions about PHP language future? Does this language have any perspectives or it will be replaced by a new technology later? What do you think about this .

    Absolutely no worry. Some of the largest sites on the internet are built using it, not to mention that it is by far the most used language. It's easy to use, well documented, works perfectly with html, has a huge development base. php will be around for a long time.

    PHP will soon be replaced by sea turtles and leprechauns. The time is nigh.

    Another thing, your threads aren't the sharpest mate.

    Of course it will be replaced.... but it should be of no concern, its not going anywhere in the forseeable future.....

    Maybe very very v-e-r-y far in the future when much of the technology has been replaced and changed. PHP is a very used language. I can't see it being replaced any time soon. The number of computers/servers running PHP is just increasing.

    my view regarding php ..
    - It is not cost you like .net(Need to buy license for use )
    - A lots open source available free where other language tool available but need to buy
    - its perfect for SEO also(Personal view)

    Bright future and may have to face a lots other competition also...

    Um... how does PHP have any advantage over *any* other scripting language in SEO? :p It's not the language you choose, its the approach you adopt.

    - You don't have to pay to use the .NET framework.
    - There is plenty of open source code in MANY other languages.
    - There are other languages just as good, if not better

    I love PHP, but I love the truth more. :)

    Well considering most, ecommerce, Bulletin boards, dynamic websites, and tons of other sites use it, it will be very hard to replace. Thats like saying: "everyone who has a car has to sell it right now and buy a unicycle" (Car being PHP (common) and unicycle being the NEW language (unknown and somewhat hard for new programmers)).

    Basically you'll probably be very old, and possibly not even be coding anymore by the time PHP is replaced.
