    All programming languages do the same thing, it all depends on how much money you want to invest.
    With php you will spend less money. With .net and java you will spend much more money, programmers in that area are high more expensier, you will need dedicated or much more better hosting and so on..

    There are security holes in everything, choosing what to develop on based upon the last security holes is probably not very responsible. Depending on your payment processing, the ecommerce portion of your website may not even be hosted on your PHP or ASP.Net site. I'd recommend PHP as well unless you want to deal with dedicated hosting of a windows machine. Generally, they are fairly stable, but nowhere near as stable IMHO as a linux/unix machine for serving webpages and things such as that. That being said, bad code can make any platform fail to perform well.

    php is really handy when it comes to developing ecommerce application even there are lots of php based open source ecommerce application like magento, zencart, oscommerce, opencart and so on.

    Java and .net is really hectic and really time consuming.

    Better go with php.

    cheers

    They will all be as good as each other, but as a PHP developer I know there is many open source PHP solutions (Magento, osCommerce) which you can utilise.

    Go learn PHP.

    Java and .net are very deep programming languages and there's too much to learn and understand.

    PHP is the best platform for developing the e commerce website because php runs on all platform like windows, Linux, Unix etc..

    For developing e commerce website PHP with MySQL is a great place to start. You'll find it broadly accepted, plenty of helpful resources are available, there's no cost to study and use. PHP has lot's of good feature and also PHP is support almost every host and database like MySQL, Informix, Oracle, Sybase, Solid, PostgreSQL, Generic ODBC, etc..

    I would advise you to use PHP as well for all the reasons mentioned above. But dont consider a PHP script safe just because its developed in PHP or hosted on a Linux server. If you decided to go with an open source script like magento, always keep it up to date by installing every update they provide. And if you decide to develop a custom script test it with website security testing tools for XSS and SQL injection vulnerabilities before launching the service.

    If you're starting from scratch with PHP you can have a website up and running in less than a week. I can't say the same for .NET or Java. Unless you plan to become a professional coder that writes for corporate projects, you should stick to PHP.

    There is no doubt that Php is best language for developing website i.e small in size and not use large databse. PHP based site are much secure.Actually website security depends on your programming skills You can make secure website if you are very good in programming.

    I think .Net is the best programming language to develop a e-commerce website because it have some new features which helps to programmer to develop attractive or economic website.

    From a security perspective, and these stats: https://www.whitehatsec.com/assets/WPstats_fall09_8th.pdf, there's not a big difference in which language to choose. The numbers seem to give .NET a slight edge in terms of percent of vulnerabilities found versus percent of sites analyzed, but that’s something like 4:10 for .NET versus 5:10 for php and java. I would say that is evidence that the languages are close enough that the knowledge and practices of the developer are more important, particularly for e-commerce sites.

    I don't see that anywhere in that report. I do see where asp and aspx extensions make up 33% of all vulnerabilities. Those are .NET technology.

    Meanwhile, Java (jsp) and PHP only make up 3% and 8%, respectively.

    Why don't you just use Joomla? They have very stable and functional shopping carts there ready made!

    Because Joomla is not a programming language.
