Joined there mailing list, thanks guys!
some of my final thoughts fall in line with actually doing it to see whether or not the language is right for me. After coding for some years now(none of which has been done professionally) I feel that there needed to be some kind of set rule out there in the world of what I need to know.
design has never been a problem as much as 'function', I'm looking through some very special applications that leave a lot of feedback from servers and give you itemized documentation of how many times a file has been downloaded or a link on your website has been clicked. That to me is the next step in a lot of tracking and understanding a person who navigates through a web-page.
what do they click and why?
I figured out how to use a php based clock and calender which was fun, but, this is what I needed.
I hate to sound like a moron, but, PERL and ASP??
