| I need your help choosing a language 
Say if someone who hasn't done any programming in several years, wants to create an online community site, where people have to pay to join, with an online forum and everything - and he wants to do it himself, and rather quickly (yet secure), what language should he go for?
I was thinking about php or ASP.net, but seriously haven't followed up on anything programming related since 2003 ... any advice is welcome |

| | Yeah I would definately go for a pre-built CMS and then download any mods that you might need. http://www.phpizabi.net/ is a popular choice for people looking to create a myspace-ish community site. Failing that then check out Xoomla, DotNetNuke or one of the other CMS's of the plethora available |

| i'd have to say go with something prebuilt you can use for now, but get something where you can buy/get the source later if you want to get in deep and make your own custom mods. That's what we did with this forum.
