Why do it in Asp, have to run a unsecure server app, on a unsecure OS, and have to pay for it all, when you can do it in PHP for free, on a secure linux server. Little more work, but it's worth it in the long run. Let alone, if it's in asp, anything other than IE will have some problems running it.
I've never used PHP, but I'd like to learn. I had exposure to ASP.NET in one of my courses, and I absolutely loathed it, but that might be because our instructor had us using VB.NET as the language for server-side scripting.
