I agree, sparker, and I love PHP (especially 5), however it still has a ways to go before it becomes a mature end-all scripting language.
Back in the day before the XHTML-CSS revolution when PHP was first created (with Perl) it was very much intended to be embedded in HTML, much like ASP and JSP. PHP has spent some time trying to escape from that, and even with the birth of PHP5 it still has a ways to go (hence the existence of template engines like Smarty).
As robust as it has become, for an application like this PHP is not the answer.
