Answer 3

PHP is widely used and well written and well documented. It can be used on the server side to create web pages, or as a scripting language to do non web related administrative tasks, either on a server or even on your local development workstation. PHP is just one of many possible server side scripting languages. Ruby on Rails is another popular language environment (although I dislike it because I am old school). Perl was previously more popular than PHP but has fallen out of favor in recent years. Node.js (modular project-based JavaScript environment with "git" software repository integration) I think is expanding use cases and may see a fair amount of growth in the server side usage in coming years. Learn as many as your brain can handle. The more languages you learn, the more comfortable you get at learning more, because you realize many of the same concepts apply. Should you learn a server side scripting language? Yes. Many. But ask yourself, WHICH servers? What operating system? What web server software? Microsoft IIS or Linux Apache or Apache on Windows or nginx on something else, etc. The server environment is important as it will determine which server side scripting languages can be supported. It takes a lot of work on the part of server developers to integrate scripting engines efficiently. Also consider the target audience of the website: low, medium or high volume, informational or ecommerce, etc. The performance of a single scripting language can vary WIDELY on different servers and platforms due to various quality of integration of script engines, etc. The more languages you know, the better you will be able to adapt, the wider range of paying jobs you will be able to handle.
