I know c++ and people say php's syntax is so close to that of C .
But I want to know does PHP provide the same fexibility as ASP , and can you do all with it what you can do with ASP ?

OH GOD NO. Go for PHP. Its not a question, ASP is the cancer that kills all good things in this world.

PHP is vastly superior in syntax simplicity, performance, documentation and support. Not to mention the fact that its open source compared to ASP's closed Microsoft source.

When it comes to SQL, go for MySQL. Supported right into PHP with no modifications.

And yes, to your first statement. PHP is a lot like C/++ syntax-wise.

In the end you can do the same with asp as php for web pages,  tough there is no other reason than working on old existing asp applications to use asp, go with php.
