> You're making the mistake of conflating PHP the language with Rails the Framework. I've heard someone call PHP "the C web framework". I thought it was fitting, and in addition, it seemed that even as a C web framework, it was a failure.

PHP the C web framework? PHP a failure? Lol!

  "Lol!" I think you're in the wrong place. Reddit is this way.

PHP may have some rather serious flaws but it is far from a failure and runs on a huge majority of the web.

  Agree that it has flaws, agree that it not a failure, but what do you mean "runs on a large majority of the web"?

  "but it is far from a failure" CS-wise (and design-wise), it's very much a failure. It's a market success, though - just like VHS was, many years ago. ;-)
