Which is the best programming language to use in order to build a shopping cart style website?
June 15th, 2009 | 
Author: Hi,
I'm learning to build an E-Commerce style shopping cart type of website as a project (similar to how most online shop websites are designed). Just wanted your opinions (and facts) on which would be the most appropriate programming method in order to do this? as in PHP/MySQL, ASP, Struts, JSP, etc?
Also i will be taking security into consideration and will be using OpenSSL, any opinions or suggestions on this?
Thanks in advance for your answers
PHP/mysql is the best choice (IMHO)
Best thing is that it's free, relatively easy to learn and has a large community so if you have a problem, lot's of free help is available (like here)
Your server you will be using, does need to support PHP of course… The SSL part, you best can ask your hosting company.
