I have been with this company for the past 10 years and NOW they are no longer going to support ASP and they are only going to focus on PHP. Is there a program that will convert asp to php? Is this even something I should attempt as I do not know any coding except what I have learned along the way. Thank you in advance.

Indeed.

What I really like about PHP is that I can do in one or two commands what
would take me 8 or 10 lines of code in VBScript. And David Powers.... 8)

So - you know ASP/VBSCRIPT well? Do you know PHP?

I know enough ASP/VBSCRIPT to get me by. But have not been exposed to any PHP. Have 11 websites to convert and 5 with shopping carts.
thanks....

Huh?

Your post doesn't belong here.
