It actually does more than ecommerce. None of us are in the same community. We are spread to the winds. So we rely on the web to make it happen. Our current solution was written in PHP 4 by someone else. I upgrade it to PHP 5 about 4 years ago. It is full of patches, some old code and some new. Part is MVC and other parts have
HTML and PHP mixed together with DB code. It is time to do a complete makeover and add a ton of functionality. I've been looking at CodeIgniter for the project. However Java has jumped up on my radar again. I say again, because I have studied and played with Java multiple times over the past 10 or 12 years.<br>> <br>> As I think about this, I think we can use Java to do the web app, and potentially create a desktop app to allow the operations folks to have access with an app that runs on their Win or MAC PC's. Potentially maybe even a smart device app.<br>> <br>> Any thoughts are always appreciated.<br>> <br>> ------------------------<br>> Keith Smith<br>> <br>> --- On *Sun, 1/20/13, Bryan O'Neal /<<a ymailto="mailto:Bryan.ONeal@TheONealAndAssociates.com" href="/mc/compose?to=Bryan.ONeal@TheONealAndAssociates.com">Bryan.ONeal@TheONealAndAssociates.com</a>>/* wrote:<br>> <br>>

If it is small with few<br>> hits and non stateful data use PHP or even rails. If you are doing<br>> an massively scaled ecommerce site then you use java. It is a<br>> matter of which does what better. As for the individual
thinking<br>> java was client side, I suggest that perhaps you are thinking java<br>> script not java. Java is server side and processed tomcat or jboss.<br>> Personal I like java :)<br>> <br>> On Jan 20, 2013 12:24 PM, "keith smith" <<a ymailto="mailto:klsmith2020@yahoo.com" href="/mc/compose?to=klsmith2020@yahoo.com">klsmith2020@yahoo.com</a><br>> </mc/compose?to=<a ymailto="mailto:klsmith2020@yahoo.com" href="/mc/compose?to=klsmith2020@yahoo.com">klsmith2020@yahoo.com</a>>> wrote:<br>> <br>> <br>> Hi,<br>> <br>> I am in the process of planning a web project.
