Welcome to GFY nOOb....


PHP is better.

Perl is old school.

perl

PHP was designed to generate dynamic web content. Perl was designed to do everything.

Unfortunately, using perl with the web is a hack, and very clumsily implemented.

.... err I would prefer PHP since I don't know Perl but it's faster and more stable. err used to be anyway, who knows.

Php is overall better. normially you have to use sql when you use anything using databases, which I hate with a passion.

I do both professionally, they each have the uses.

PHP is much better for fast, easy builds like websites.

Perl is much better for complex scripts which need a lot of complex functionality which can be used through 3rd party libraries (CPAN).
