programming languages for dynamic web design?
447131
There are 2 major program language for dynamic sites being used: PHP and ASP.\nPHP is used the most on the internet. A simple PHP script to would look like this:\n<?\n$a=4;\n$b=6;\necho $a." + ".$b." =".($a+$b)\n?>\n\nAn other language also used for dynamic websites is Coldfusion.

PHP is good if you only want DYNAMICS, but when you are talking of Business Logics and Web based Applications then you must opt for ASP.NET or JSP/Servlets

I am a professional programmer. My favorite languages are C++ and ASP (JavaScript). I'm not sure what you are looking for.

Ajax is very powerful stuff - but its really useful in populating forms and interface elements in a web page without refreshing or reloading. I second the first poster's suggestion that you really ought to consider Flash for such a thing, since just about everyone has Flash anyway.... its graphics model would be less flaky than a web browser, and you wouldn't have to worry about the behaviour of different browsers.

definitely, PHP. (If you have to choose from these three that is - otherwise, I would have voted for perl). \nWhen you talk about web, and/or text processing, php (or perl) is THE tool for you. Nothing comes close in ease of use, and effectiveness (of both run-time and development). \nSeveral pages of a C++ or java  program are usually translated to 2-3 lines of perl or php.\n... and no, there are no "security issues",  if your server is configured properly. And if it isn't, you've got issues regardless of language. To be viable, security must be provided by the web server, not by application. \n\nYour other choices have their problems.\nJava is cumbersome, ineffective, memory hungry, unstable... to name a few. You'd be really much better off with C++ than java, especially, since you already know it. Java doesn't have any advantages over C++, except for some perceived "simplifications", that are really just functional deficiencies - such as luck of memory management options or multiple inheritance.\n\n.NET... hmmm.... hope, you are not serious. All I can say, stay away from micro-soft stuff as much as you can. It can bring nothing but sorrow.

HTML KIT...Freeware.\nA really pleasant HTML kit fully featured HTML, XHTML and XML authors to edit, format, lookup help, validate, preview and publish web pages. Newcomers to web page design can benefit from letting it point out errors and provide suggestions on how to create standards compliant pages. Experts can save time spent on common tasks using the highly customizable and extensible integrated development environment while maintaining full control over multiple file types including HTML, XHTML, XML, CSS, XSL, JavaScript, VBScript, ASP, PHP, JSP, Perl, Python, Ruby, Java, VB, C/C++, .NET C#, Delphi / Pascal, Lisp, SQL. A tutorial on the kit is included.\n \nhttp://www.chami.com/html-kit/

Personally I would suggest either Java or C# (C-Sharp).  Both of these languages lend themselves to very easy code and easily debugable code.  Both will easily allow you to connect to a Database and do what you need.  As far as output and looks, they're both really similar, if you choose to do a web front it you can use html and all the features of html to aide the design and output.  \n\nIf you choose C++, it will be extreemly difficult to get what you want done.  It will take far more effort to connect to a data back in C++ than it would in Java or C#. \n\nVB is very easy as well, but personally i hate it.  It is far too simple, and you loose flexability.\n\nHope this helps..

Microsoft has ASP.NET (1.1 and 2.0) starter kits that has complete code for a sample website. They are quite good. Very complete and good documentation.\n\nhttp://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/vwd/starterkit/

i'll go for Mambo. it is highly recommended and used by several SME's. also there's a good community developers that support it. plus, a lot of templates are existing in the internet.

Hi, there are some rules you have to know before knowing that.\n► DOES WEBHOST Support it\nDoes your webhositng company support scripts like PHP/JSP/ASP/RUBY ? Do they have any dynamic scripting support?\n\n► DO YOU HAVE A SCRIPT READY?\nDid you make your dynamic script yet? If not you have to do it...\n\n► IS IT EASY TO DO ONE?\nIf  you know basic programming principles it is easy... For example... look at this in PHP. I will show you how to do it in php! Now... :)\n\n\n► I will make a universal Header that will be included in all my files...\n\nFILENAME: Header.php\n====================\n<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" lang="en">\n<head>\n<body>\n<div id="container">\n<div id="header"><h1>My Website</h1></div>\n<div id="navigation"> \n<ul>\n<li><a href="/?action=1">LINK 1</a></li>\n<li><a href="/?action=2">LINK 2</a></li>\n<li><a href="/?action=3">LINK 3</a></li>\n</ul>\n</div>\n<div id="maincontent">\n\n► Same thing for the universal footer\nFILENAME: Footer.php\n====================\n</div>\n<div id="footer">\n<p>Copyright m0|interactive</p>\n</div>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n\n\n► Note that I opened the maincontent divider and closed it in the footer, in the middle is gonna be the content.So here is the controller of the website\nFILENAME: Content.php\n====================\n<?php\ninclude('Header.php');\nswitch($_GET['link]) {\ncase 2:\ninclude('link2.php');\nbreak;\ncase 3:\ninclude('link3.php');\nbreak;\ndefault:\ninclude('link1.php');\nbreak;\n}\ninclude('Footer.php');\n?>\n\n► Now Lets make one of the links, cause note that the above incldes this file :)\nFILENAME: Link1.php\n====================\n<h2>Link 1</h2>\n<p>Welcome to my website....</p>\n\n\n\n► You see, I AM DONE.. I did a semi dynamic website, note that I did no error checking and all the security stuff which should be into anyones consideration.\nNote that you can make it more dunamic by storing the values in the database and what not! \n\nLike fetchArticle something :)\n\nEnjoy I hope I helped a Bit! NOTE that their might be syntax errors, But This is a way how I to do a dynamic website in under 10 minutes!

Good luck!  Those are tough programs to learn.\n\nIf you get stumped with Dreamweaver, try this program...EZLAVA Web Site Builder.  It's a powerful alternative.

Most popular seems to be ASP.NET. Pages usually (but not always) end in .aspx\n\nAJAX is another new technology that sort of combines ActiveX and Javascript in a way that adds some "live" functionality to sites. Google Maps, for example, uses it.\n\nSome sites still use Perl.\n\nContrary to the other poster, I have yet to see any major Fortune 500 site written in PHP. \n\nFor the money, learn/use ASP.NET. It's the de facto standard today.\n\nKind regards.

Are you looking at those languages specifically or any scripting language to build dynamic webpages with?  If the latter I would recommend starting with PHP.  It is easier to learn and it is free.  Most webhosts offer it and there are tons of tutorials out there.  If you want to just try it out on your computer, I'd recommend XAMPP.  It is a working version of Apache, Mysql, PHP and Perl all together in one easy-to-install package.  I keep a copy on my USB drive so I can do my development anywhere.

I would use PHP, ASP, or Perl for web applications.\n\nVisual Basic would be ok for a software interface if that is the language you know.\n\nSome links for you:\nhttp://www.downloaddatabase.com/databasemanagement/asp-php-web-database-interface-builder.htm\nhttp://sourceforge.net/projects/phpdbi/\n\nhttp://www.databasejournal.com/features/php/article.php/3305401\nhttp://www.spsu.edu/cs/faculty/bbrown/papers/php3.html\n\nhttp://www.tutorial-web.com/asp/database/\nhttp://www.rcbowen.com/imho/cgi-database/index.html\n\nHope this helps.

it looks like Perl or Ruby on Rails, something that uses CGI

Lot of free to use templates, both css and non css\nhttp://www.oswd.org
