We are considering using PHP on i for some new development, but a colleague has raised a concern about the security of PHP applications. He remembers past stories about lots of security holes on PHP applications, and scripted attacks against php web applications. He does not know if these flaws were due to just bad design/coding on the part of the developer or something inherent in the way PHP works. Does anyone on this list have any experience in this area?
