Brandon, i remember you saying that the CD header was made in perl. Could you have done the same thing in php? - If so, why in perl?
Our older server (before moving to Ventures Online) didn't have PHP installed. They did have Perl, though, so I wrote everything in Perl (forums, header, who-am-i, white papers, etc) You are correct -- you can do the same thing with PHP, and the header for the forums is in PHP. The header on the Alumni, Competition, History, and a few pages is still in Perl. One day I may change it around. Not right now though

I prefer PHP over Perl, only because i use PHP all day at work, and there are a few subtle differences that would drive me crazy moving back & fourth between languages.
