The ASP translator is a free, online tool that will help you convert ASP to PHP. Simply paste some ASP code or ASP mixed with HTML in one box, click "translate" and PHP code, along with any HTML will appear in a second box. This utility won't convert everything (yet!), but it will save you hours of time by converting all of your variables. You can get it here: http://www.design215.com/toolbox/translator/trans_login.php
Most ASP software use MsSQL, and php use Mysql, you can make the conversion to change it from MsSQL to MySQL
Not necessarily, you can use mssql in php as well. But the problem is that these converters only convert the syntax and while they could be great helpers if you need to translate an app, they will never do all of the job for you.
yes.. i have tried to convers a page of my website, don't work well, but it can be helpfull, it will not do your work, but saves time.
You are quite right in saying that.... It can only do some work... But we'll need to look into the details... I think this might increase a programmers workload... distinguishing bits of codes that work and don't work...
