That's interesting. PHP has been the most popular web development language for a long time. Is Perl also out of the question?

HTML DB under the cover really is Apache+PL/SQL. I would recommend PL/SQL for Oracle only database development, but not web development in general. With that said, I would not dismiss the prospect of PL/SQL without knowing your applications. Received on Sat Jul 23 2005 - 21:06:11 CDT
