The Viking writes "I was curious about which programming languages are hot with employers, so I did an informal search of several job search engines. The results are interesting (to me, at least). Are these numbers relevant? We can certainly debate whether or not the online job search engines are representative of the actual employment landscape."

    No one uses PHP at an enterprise level, nor is it ready to be used in such a manner.

    You don't consider Yahoo to be enterprise level???

    Ahem. SourceForge.net (supporting > 500,000 users) is written in PHP (+ Perl and Python).

    Like any tool - wield it correctly and you can build anything. Wield it incorrectly and you've got Windoze.
