PHP, without a doubt. It is far more flexible than ASP. I say this as somebody with over 4 years ASP experience. I'd never go back.

And with PHP5, and it's incredibly improved OOP, its certainly a good competitor for the likes of JSP and .NET.

I'd certainly advise getting your head around OOP concepts and related methodologies, and design patterns etc. to get the best out of something like PHP5 though.

Some cool advanced PHP stuff:
