    They are using a .daft extension?? that doesnt even score points for commedy value.

    There is rarely any way of saying for certain what language a site is written in but there can be clues.... it lacks the trademark code of .Net and is unlikely to be ASP or CFM as both tend to be more difficult to change file extension mapping and so not normally seen on small sites.

    It could be PHP, JSP or CGI fairly easily as all typically use an Apache web server that makes extension mapping much easier. Probability is that it is PHP given CGI is fairly outdated and JSP is rare outside of multinational companies.
