PHP

[brandon_behrens]

I think it is interesting that a site whose URL is vb-world
is programmed in php. What does that say about ASP? Didn't
this site used to be in ASP? Why the switch?

[noone]

The site is running on an UNIX server:
Server: Apache/1.3.12 (Unix) PHP/4.0.0

And running ASP on Unix is not that much fun, tried it once, had several problems and just went with Servlets.
The fact that it's on UNIX probably has to do either with a large number of visitors or a huge database that's needed for the forum. Just a guess.

We chose to go with the options of *nix and PHP rather than Windows and ASP, for several reasons. However, we have always used PHP, and will be doing so for the forseeable future.

I can't blame you for going with Unix and PHP over Windows and VB. The superiority of the former is more than obvious.

You would say that

Well, if this place runs apache and php4, how do you stop extra headers appearing on your pages? Using php4 as a direct replacement for php3 always seems to put an extra Content-type header up.
