Which is easer to learn?

[my3brs]

Which language do you think is easier to learn XML, PHP, JSP, or Coldfusion?

I think Jsp is easy

[syphon101]

php was easier for me to learn, personally

Well as far as I know it all depends on what you are doing.

XML and PHP I know for a fact are completely different. Even if you meant XHTML, they are still entirely different being that PHP is server-side and XML and XHTML are client-side.

Not exactly sure how JSP and Coldfusion work so I won't offer advice on those.



So if you are looking for Server-Side then I would say go with PHP or ASP (I personally prefer PHP, but it varies from person to person).

[Voetsjoeba]

I prefer PHP too. I don't really like Javascript, there are always errors there (or maybe thats me :P) but anyway, PHP is way better to me.

vj: JSP is not the samething as Javascript (just fyi)

I haven't yet had to use JSP for anything and my host does not support Coldfusion or I would dip my toes into that as well.

I personally prefer PHP :)

[Voetsjoeba]

Woops, read that wrong (-: Then what is JSP ?

[lostinbeta]

JSP = Java Server Pages (I think)

[ahmed]

yup, JSP is javaserver pages, and im assuming it uses SSJS (server-side javascript)..

I would go for php. A friend of mine codes with both ColdFusion and PHP, and he's told me that ColdFusion lacks some functionality like image manipulation and such. PHP is open-source, easy to learn, and very reliable. :)

I was about to ask the same question: should I learn asp, php or jsp? Thanks for the replies! Php it is! (once I finish my AS book).

[Digitalosophy]

my vote is to php, but honestly ASP is much easier then all of the above

[DariusMonsef]

Well I don't program in a lot of the above, but I can tell you Coldfusion is very easy to use and learn.
