RE: [MLUG - DISCUSSION] web development language of choice

[Michael <EMAIL:PROTECTED>]

Cool didn't know JSP compiled automagiclly for you. Somehow the reviews
I've read always indicated otherwise. I'm not sure why language used
should matter for intergration as long as your using a portable
interface. Perl and PHP both run on Windows with IIS. In fact Microsoft
has paid to improve how well they run under Windows (a good thing M$
actually has done IMO). so there is no need to use JSP because of that.
