which one is easy and usefull asp.net or php?

[lovinglife]

I have a project to make this year. Either I have to choose php or asp.net. I want to know which one is simpler and requires less resources, which one has a good future scope and easier to code and work with ? Please help, Ps I have a 300 marks project, what you guys think I should go with php or asp.net, I'm completely beginner so I have no idea which language to chose and why

both will be around for a long while, asp.net tends to have better performance than php but requires windows server where as php is open source and can run on any machine you install a web server with php support onto.

php would be the quickest and easier of the two to get a grips with.


you will also want to learn HTML and CSS aswell for layout of the pages.

learn how to layout your webpages with dividers and CSS styling rather than using tables.

Thanks for your time, much appreciated. As I said before I have a 300 marks project and I want to score at least over 250, So can you give me some tips, tutorials or anything than can help me ? I was going to choose asp.net over php but then my friend warned me that coding in asp.net is a hassle and I might end up wasting my time and money, so I better go with PHP.

PHP is easier usually. It's what I learnt.

Learning HTML/CSS first is a good idea, and a quick bit of JS/JQuery can be helpful.
