Hi; I'm reading *the book* and it appears that Zope supports Perl and Python but *not* PHP :(( Well, I'm learning Python and I have a limited but working knowledge of PHP: I really *don't* want to have to learn Perl because, although there's lots of stuff out there written in Perl, PHP (IMHO) is better suited for the Internet than Perl. (I don't mean to offend any Perl officionados out there.) So... Is there, or will there be support for PHP? Will I be able to somehow cobble an interface between Zope and my PHP programs? Also (without getting too far OT) can I do pretty much anything I can do in PHP in Python? TIA, BenO
There is a post about using PHP with Zope. http://www.zope.org/Members/Mamey/PHP But what is the point? Ben Ocean wrote:

This was discussed about a month ago. check the archive. conclusion was that you can do anything with dtml that php does, though with perhaps a little bit more indirection. ciao! greg. Gregory Haley Venaca.com

and you can do _more_ in python than in php. python's a 'proper' language suitable for writing whole apps (e.g. Zope, Medusa) - PHP's going that way with Zend but it's not there yet. seb
