Hey guys, I have a little question for you...
I need to program a news updater and a forum for a friend's website.
I was wondering what language should I use do to this task.
Shoud I take PHP or ASP.NET?
Wich one is the most appropriate?
I plan to stock all data in a XML file.
Thx a lot guys!

avoid .net like the plague! it looks good on your resume, but so does bodycounts if you're a hitman...

Ok
I was planning to use PHP. No need to buy any liscence at all.
I think I'll boycott Microsoft from now on, you guys conviced me.

seriously?
wow... that was easy!

i wouldn't go that far. having knowledge of ms technologies can take you pretty far if you ever have an inkling to work for 'the man'.

but you can't go wrong with open source technologies like php, mysql and xml.
:)
but, there are already countless iterations of exactly what you need online......
why not just check out those and modify instead of re-inventing the wheel?
