Not that I don't like perl, or am not up for an occasional recreational diversion into hackery, but I guess it's been a while since I've fancied myself a computer geek.

I am a college student & i'm crating a social networking site through PHP as a college project. But i dont know why PHP is great. But after readingyour comments, I feel that I had chosen the correct technology for my project. Thanks Once Again!!! Thanks for such good reply.

That was a typo in the post. In regards to QUITS, they are server bound, but they're still sent to your channel window as a QUITS level.

Quits are not channel bound as you do not quit a channel but the whole server, same for nick changes. The patch for http://bugs.irssi.org/index.php?do=details&task_id=204&project=5 also has a more general solution that may be of interest.

For me any application which is worth a few million/billion bucks is an enterprise level application and this includes all the top PHP websites. @jojo: Who told you that an application written in a dorm room can not be an enterprise application? and who wrote the rule that enterprise application needs 100s of programmers to work on?

All of those sites started out in a college dorm with 1 developer with no money. Those kind of sites are meant for PHP. None of those sites are "enterprises", they are just popular, simple websites. You think digg.com is a difficult site to develop? When you're talking an enterprise, that has to integrate multiple departments, multiple sets of developers that are coming in and out on a 3-year long project, there is no possible way PHP can compete vs. asp.net. PHP lovers are bragging that asp.net gives them too much or is too easy to develop? Yeah, you're basically arguing that PHP is more difficult to develop. The hatred of asp.net coils down to an irrational hatred of Microsoft and nothing more. I've built small sites, PHP/Classic ASP is great for small sites with 1 developer with no money. asp.net for everything else.

PHP, like "Classic" ASP, has a short learning curve compared to .net. However, when a site starts to scale, and you have lots of back-end business rules, and different modules that are dynamically used, it's much easier to use asp.net. Look at a pre-built shopping cart in php vs. asp.net, it's much easier to figure out asp.net code; the structure that asp.net is a pain for simple sites but absolutely crucial for larger sites. If you have multiple developers managing different aspects of a site, asp.net is easier. Anyone that has developed in both will say the same thing, that's just reality.

Anyone and everyone can write an Irssi script, and submit it to scripts.irssi.org. The script might go through a light review process, but they're certainly not scrutinized for security. Further, the script I linked to isn't long, and isn't complicated. You can easily read the script and see that it's doing exactly as advertised. There is nothing shady going on. @piousminion- That’s a bit naive, trusting any and all scripts at scripts.irssi.org.
