Some help pls

Hello,

I am new to this forum and new to WML. I am considering doing a project using the WML technology.I would appreciate an opinion on the most suitable server side language. What would be the advantages and disadvantages for php and asp, for example?

Thank you in advance.

Hi and welcome to Dev Shed.

Your question is fairly broad and response to it may be pretty broad too.
As I come from a PHP background, I would say PHP - because I know it.

That doesn't mean to say that you can't use Java, ASP, ColdFusion or any of the other server site technologies.

However -
PHP:
is fairly easy to learn
it is well support - excellent documentation and forums galore
commonly hosted - many hosts provide this in standard package
cross platform
constantly developed and open source

ASP / .NET:
don't know, I played with it for a while, but wasn't my cup of tea
it is MS, but many scripts etc. are available at a cost
Need MS server, unless *nix server has chillisoft or equivalent
MS only, see above
don't know and you have to pay for most things

On the point of using WML, unless you are targeting legacy phone users,
you should consider XHTML MP (mobile phone).
It is a lot more versatile than WML...

Hope that helps a bit.
Good luck.
