What is the best general purpose code for the web? I'm guessing most scripts are written in PHP, so would learning PHP the best option for me to improve my websites? From straight HTML to something that can do some work such as calculations, form manipulation, getting info from other sites, etc.?

If PHP is not the best option, could you make some other suggestions please?

The kind of things I'd like to do is:
* allocate unique numbers to members (based on a unique logon)
* have members linked to other members
* numerical maniulation interrelating different site members
* database manipulation
* paypal manipulation (payments)

Thanks,

IMil

    I find that PHP is the best, too. Flexibility, functionality, speed, adaptability, etc., it has all the elements that I like for creating dynamic websites. And I also ike the fact that it is open source and free.
