To tell you the honest truth... I'd say go with PHP. Euphoria *works* as a CGI language, but it was never designed for it. PHP is very nice, and is designed specifically as a CGI language. You have integrated, well... everything! Database access, FTP access, form handling, file uploads, even the elusive 'foreach' loop. I like Euphoria for GUI apps and command-line tools. I like PHP for CGI and webpages. ~Greg P.S. I am working on rewriting database.e into a PHP file so I can read and write EDS files. That way I can write a Euphoria app to alter my databases, but serve them out via PHP. If you're interested, I can send you a copy of it when I'm done. It's not a priority right now, but I could probably knock it out in one or two nights. I may also upload it to the Archive.
