How is PHP an alternative to Flash? Sure, if you try really hard you may be able to do the same basic things in both, but PHP is not a Flash-like language and is not intended as such. What exactly are you getting at?

I am getting at this. For the level of limited graphics ("graphics required for word games, puzzles")... PHP will work fine.
I never said PHP was Flash-like... especially regarding the graphics ability. Each language has its own use, the also share the ability to perform basic graphics. Sure, if you want to simulate driving a car, and not just have a background image of the car's console, go with Flash. If all you want is to make a card game, or a word guessing game go with PHP.

I see what you mean. That sounds like a novel suggestion.

hmm thanks for the responses. it's seems my slight contradiction (not being graphicall intensive vs. driving car simulation) is perplexing. i guess what i mean is that I might want to have some sort of "racing viewpoint" but it can be simple. in fact it doesn't have to appear 3-d, maybe even just having cars racing across the screen in 2-d.
In that case it seems php would be the best choice? someone else mentioned java applets, would php be more appropriate than java? Thanks again, Joe |
