Re: I couldn't understand why PHP is so popular. The PHP code looks so horrible compared with Java.

Horrible code comes in all languages.

Yes, I can. PHP is a language that's easy to learn and easy to use,
which is why so many choose to use it.

Actually I chose it because it's cross-platform, stable, powerful, tried
and tested and specifically designed to do what I'm doing with it. I'd
like to see where you collected your statistical data on PHP adoption.

IMO, it's not much more horrible than C++ or Java; it all depends on the
programmer who makes use of it.

My PHP code is pretty... as is my C++ code.

Blame the Indian not the arrows.
