I have always preferred PHP; mainly because of the popularity (check Hotscripts if you don't believe me). I think the loading times can be similar; and as always; it depends on what it is running on.

Also, if you choose PHP, you will get a lot more support on these forums!

Well any way , you should use PHP

PHP isn't really "growing." It is just one of the many scripting languages available on the web; and happens to be the most popular.

Each scripting language is mainly made for certain tasks. For what you're probably going to do, PHP will be appropriate.

PHP, MySQL, are the best two combinations possible. They are both open source, and most importantly free.
Believe me, after being an experienced ASP programmer, the switch to PHP was the best move ever.
