I admit, those of you out there that know Perl could probably build an
application quickly. I find that these type of people can develop an
application quickly with just about any product or language. One of the
biggest benefits I have seen with using PHP is that I am writing HTML code
with PHP mixed in. This seems more logical than writing PERL/CGI code with
HTML (well sort of) text strings mixed in.

I know that future enhancements of the current project will include
specialized CGI scripts, java, etc (that is the name of the game).

For those of you out there who don't know what PHP/FI is point your browsers to:

Check it out, Rasmus as done an excellent job with this product. An
additional bonus is, it's FREE (part of the GNU Free Software Foundation).
