Yes that's a valid point. But that alone is not enough for php to be disregarded. Because one who wants to not have urls point to files on disk will change this behaviour. .htaccess makes it possible. This is a security problem, i agree. But not a major security problem. Because if it were, sites like Facebook would have been exploited long ago. It's certainly possible to do things right way. Which brings us back to "its developer's fault and not language's". to which what you said suits. > most good programmers don't like php, because it makes easy to do bad things
