If you mean any other Web development *programming* language, I agree.
But what are you replying to?

It is easy to think so until you have seen Python :)  But PHP is certainly 
improving.

> PHP is a server-side language

NAK.  As discussed before, no language is either server-side or client-side.  
PHP is a language that is *primarily* used server-side.  There are also a 
number of client-side applications of PHP, like phpDocumentor.

ACK, if we accept the definition of "Web page" being "a document resource 
that can be accessed via HTTP".

Reads like copy-pasted from a marketing speech.  After all, it depends on 
the skills of the people developing a Web site whether it will be a good 
user experience, not the programming language.

That is a curious way of saying that PHP is an acronym for "*P*HP 
*H*ypertext *P*reprocessor".

Contrary to common belief, that, in itself, is _not_ a virtue.  In fact, 
there are "strong user communities" that offer misleading information at 
best (jQuery).

Do you realize where you are posting to?
