Which one - PHP or Html? - Page 2

**Eric** · 06-08-2008, 04:58 AM

When it comes to PHP or (x)HTML, I think of it this way:

If it's a simple website (such as a minisite) that doesn't need any advanced features, I'll use just HTML.

If I do want advanced features, I first look to see if it can be accomplished with simple javascript first (depending on what those features are); if javascript won't do the trick, then I move on to PHP.

today ir is very easy to just install wordpress and even in mini sites use all the power available by this cms. All in on seo plugin for example. It is just too simple.

one thing XHTML is based on HTML. and second thing HTML can't be depreciated,

all what you get through PHP ASP or ASP.net is all based on HTML only.

what you get is HTML as the final output.

saying HTML is obselete is like saying my kernel is obselete so i will only use my web browser.

A web browser is not based on a kernel.

OHK buddy,
????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/programming/472653-which-one-php-or-html.html

you got my comment wrong way

it was comparing PHP and HTML not HTML and XHTML.

also in this case PHP does necessarily need HTML.

also web browser's are based on kernel.

otherwise you would have used standalone webbrowser's

Depends on what the site is about. I like both but I feel nowadays that most sites are dynamic sites, not just plain HTML.

wikes82 · 06-13-2008, 06:20 PM

that's like comparing LaTex (http://www.latex-project.org/) to C programming

WeeksNevin · 06-14-2008, 01:36 AM

You use php and html together. They are like peas and carrots. Since both perform different tasks, you cannot really compare them. Simply put, if you have a static (a page that never changes), then you don't need php.

There are a lot of people who use HTML, that don't use PHP. On the other hand, I doubt that there are too many people that use PHP that do not thoroughly understand HTML and CSS.

Html = Hyper Text Markup Language,
----------------
Basically this is what the end user sees. HTML displays content.

PHP = Hypertext Preprocessor
--------------------
A backend script that does all the back work.. echos in html

yea its really all about power here, is it a race car (PHP) or is it a sunday church car (HTML)

wussadotcom · 07-03-2008, 09:31 AM

I like HTML more as its very easy too use and I don't feel trap by my lack of knowledge on PHP.

HTML also have a lots of nice features which includes almost everything that I need on a simple website. Though if its going to higher standard website PHP is a preferred option.
