Response to: Servlets != applets

Unfortunately, you blamed "servlets", which are a very robust, really cool way of generating serverside stuff for the "sins" of earlier "applets".


I don't know much about PHP (other than all the code of it i've seen so far look like spaghetti ;-), but its comparison would be more like JSPs (Java Server Pages), or perhaps the Java frameworks like Struts, an open source implementation.

    There is a sentence in your article which really made me shout "what the hell is he talking about???!!!! How can he call him self "a guy that just makes websites"??!!! Does this guy know what web developing is all about??

    That sentence says: "Plus Java was often mentioned with that word "enterprise" that always makes me run the other direction, because you know the suits are near.
    Being a guy that just makes websites, I always ignored (or scoffed-at) Java"...

    Brrrrr...!!!!!!

    I think you should stop and take a good time to think about the meaning of "programming languages (aka Java, C/C++, Delphi, Assembler, ecc..)" and "scripting languages (aka PHP, ASP, Python, ecc..)"

    Yes I wrote Servlets by mistake, but corrected it to Applets within 1 hour of posting.

    Take a new look at PHP5. It's not just for inserting into HTML anymore.

    See my link, up top, for a good example.
