ColdFusion or PHP
First off I'd like to start by saying, "Aaaaarrrggggghhhhhh!!!!"
I spent the past couple of months developing an application for Hurricane Tracking. The Application blows everyone else's out of the water.
I've been using PHP to read a Text File (oh and by the way it's written by a human). I used PHP to look for Regular Expressions and pretty much play role of a "Japanese Steak House Chef", fancy chopping to create an edible plate.
The gathered Strings&Intergers are passed to a MySQL database, well because of the human mistakes in the Text File I've had to debug the PHP program several times.
Now here comes the part to why I screamed bashing my head.
I work with a non-programmer whom is trying to learn Cold Fusion. Yesterday, I debugged the PHP and produced a fully functioning PHP program. Well, behind my back my co-workers decided they didn't trust my PHP program and built a Cold Fusion Program. The Cold Fusion Program works because I stupidly told them step by step how I was reading the Text File and producing the results.
Now they think that my Server Side skills are "unreliable". WHAT!?!
Please make me feel better about this... what is better PHP or Cold Fusion? Options are great, but I'm looking for hard facts. Because I hate being made to look like an dumbass by non-programmers whom couldn't program themselves a simple Loop statement with out me!!!!
