I suggest you post a new quest for that sheikh and don't hijack my quest though it seems unpopular at the moment :(

I know that this thread started with PHP, but I would love to hear from the geeks about the current "Programming scene"... What is the current status of programming languages nowadays? what is dead, what is a live? what is the most used? and where do you think Arab programmers should focus on?

I think it is the flexibility of PHP, but this is dangerous because you can easily write a bad code. The solution to this is using frameworks which will force you to write structured code (MVC).

Ruby, on the other hand, didn't become that popular until it has been on rails, although it is an easy-to-learn scripting language. Again it is the framework that improved its popularity.
