Does anyone know of a web site that shows the ratings and/or popularity of the various different database scripting languages out there. PHP, ASP, and ColdFusion more particularly.

Considering having a large e-commerce web site re-done and boss is curious to what the market share of these three languages are on net use along database driven sites.

We’ll PHP is the most popular then theres [ASP.net](http://ASP.net) then theres CF.

lol Database Scripting Languages = SQL  
All databases basically use SQL (they just have different built in functions max() min() ect… (and custom ones)).

[LIST]  
[_] PHP can do large or small.  
[_]ASP can do massive(anogar says gigantic) to small  
[\*]CF can light on fire and run into a wall. 🙂  
[/LIST]
