Can you explain even hypothetically how that could be? You type with the same fingers in both languages, both can use syntax coloration in similar ways, if there's a syntax checker it is 99.44% likely to use a set of rules to do the checking and there's nothing about java that's more amenable to rules-based syntax checking than php is, both do version-control things using exactly the same tools and the the build-test cycle doesn't look particularly different. There may be differences in what debuggers might be used but those are all plug-ins anyway as far as I know. So what "better for Java" are you thinking of? Or are you just pulling that out of your colon so you have something contradictory to say? -- "The bullets are just his way of saying 'Keep it down, I've got a hangover.'"
