I wonder how many developers hate PHP because one is just supposed to hate PHP.
I'm sure there are many with well-thought-out reasoning though, like seen in this thread.
It's useful to keep an open mind about things though. I'm probably more a PHP fan, but I can't say that I'm a huge fan of its programming style. It's much more enjoyable to me to churn out applications in .NET or in Ruby, but it's hard to argue with the speed at which I can develop in PHP or with the level of support online for doing so.
