ZEND framework PHP ASP.Net or any other.

basically i have very less experience in php like stuff and have relatively much experience in c#,Wpf

what would you recommend that suits best?

*also i want to know what you as a professional would use.so that if necessary I can switch *

Please Rate according to

1. flexibility

2. Scalability

3. Availability of open source components

Answer 1

There are many technical choices for accomplishing this. In this situation, I would recommend using the technology that you already know -- .Net and C#.

re your criteria, is scalability really a big issue? Aren't we talking about hundreds of users, not millions?

And open source components? I don't think you really need them. This application will require some good thinking about security and about database design and UI design. Open source -- using somebody else's code -- doesn't help you address these issues. No matter whose code it is, you still must be certain you have the security worked out.

There is a lot of helpful information about ASP.Net here, including many excellent videos.

Edit: If you want to go with ASP.Net MVC (a good choice, I think), here is the main page for it, and even better, here are the videos.
