VBscript or jscript

Hi

I was thinking of doing a web based application, which would take in some inputs, and do a bit of maths on the inputs and come out with an output.

e.g. taking in 4 inputs a,b,c & d, and the output would be something like

e=a+b+log(c)+log(d)

all these computations taking place on the webpage,

would it be best done in vbscript or jscript or any other language.

would it be client or server side..?? if its not needed to be done client side then go server side and use php.. thats very useful for simple crap like that.

perl would be my recommended one... I like it over the other languages...

would i need some special setup for perl or php

when you mean client, you mean functionality in the users browser?

i would say you should use PHP if your web host supports the server side script. I think that PHP is better than java or vb and it is getting more popular in web design.

is PHP compatible with the mobile web browsers we have at present?
