Nah, PHP survived because it wasn't strict, it tolerated a lot of crap. It would process almost anything it can and not fail. Most other languages would error out seriously. Also it's model of running each request as a fresh process eliminated persistent bugs. PHP's documentation is garbage. I say this as someone that has made money handsomely from PHP. :-).

Why do you say PHP's documentation is garbage? Just one reason is enough. I personally disagree, I think it's great.
