Thanks Fernando.

I would choose ZOPE or Django and a new provider at the drop of a hat - if someone can confirm if that's the way to go. However, since, there are too many grey areas, it might be better if I stuck to what I have and see how things turn out.

Once again, thanks for your support. Appreciate it!

As you mentioned, if I have to use mySQL, isn't it better for me to go with PHP+mySQL - easier to learn and deploy? Can I just start out with a framework like Symphony instead?

Well, if all you have is PHP + MySQL in your provider, there is no "which is better" question, is it?

You might want to look at http://phptal.org/ a library that provides a templating system similar to ZPT. The advantage is the better separation between presentation and business layers.
