well PHP + mysql makes dynamic news/blog/etc sites really easy since they extract the data from a database and then use a template and host them up, for normal html you have to reupload for every update you make on the news or blog site. But with PHP, you could have a form with all the standard fields such as:
Name:
Date:
Title:
Message:
And so on, and on the actually thing it will display how ever you manipulate the info.
Therefore if you want to make a dynamic data driven website, PHP is the way to go.
yes i did say that mysql is a very secure database, and it's also open source, which makes it even more great, and it won't be hard, just keep coding and u'll get the hang of it
PHP + mySQL gives you no advantage in web design what so ever. It just gives you power for interactivity, dynamic updates to your site, and data management, but that's only best FREE way to do it. If you have the cash, Oracle, Ms's SQL server works all good.
Unfortunately, if you're looking for premade stuff then you're mostly limited to MySQL if you're using php.
The fact of the matter is that the cheapest, most widely available method of dynamic content generation is PHP+MySQL. ASP is also common with corperate sites, though I don't know which DB engine is most used with it.
Personally, after writing my first dynamic site in ASP then moving to php, I like PHP better. BASIC is too limiting for my tastes.
Yes... I THINK I've heard that ASP either deals with Microsoft Access, Microsoft SQL or Oracle SQL's database servers... (Man did I leave you alot of options there )

if you would only think about it.... just think about PHP and you could understand how it helps

Real ASP is only for Windows, though someone makes an ASP emulator for Linux.
