What's the most popular web programming language?

[rajgpl059]

As others have said, Python and Ruby are also deserving of attention; these languages are not so tightly focused on web development. Ruby is my “swiss army knife” scripting language: I use it to write quick-and-dirty Cron jobs and throwaway scripts, as an alternative to “bash” scripting, etc. I have never developed a website using RoR, but Ruby is very valuable to me. “Programming Ruby: The Pragmatic Programmer’s Guide” by Dave Thomas/Chad Fowler/Andy Hunt is one of the best books for learning any programming language.

It's hard to gauge what's considered “most popular”, because that depends on which circles you move in. However, I'll list some common ones, and leave you to pick one. “Web programming” is very broad: you can be writing code for client-side web applications (such as Java applets, Flash, Ajax components, etc.), or server-side web applications (incorporating business logic for web ***********s, usually via a framework; see below). So, in order to answer your question, you need to decide which sphere of the web programming world you wish to play in. After you've decided, here are a few choices of languages.
Java applets: Usually written in Java; can also be written in JavaScript (via scriptlets [*]).
Flash applets: ActionScript.
Ajax components: JavaScript (by definition).

PHP is the most popular web programming language, but it is based on c++, so it is hardly named a language. The microsoft version ASP is not that popular
