The choice
Although PHP might be your first choice when doing "web development" that doesn't mean it's the best one.
Food for thought:
Unbiased facts:
- PHPs availability is much better on "foreign" servers.
 - PHP is much easier to use than Perl for beginners, because you can just throw HTML in PHP files (or vice versa).
 - Perl is much cleaner than PHP.
 - Perls webserver integration sucks. Neither CGI, nor mod_perl nor fastcgi give you the ease of use of PHP.
