Does anyone know the specific languages associated with starting a myspace.
com or a facebook.com?

I'm not talking about as a member, but more so as a developer of these type
of sites.

I figured it has to be a database server side type language so that why I
posted this question here.

Just curious. Thanks.

Layne,

It appears that myspace uses ColdFusion as their server side
implementation language. This is identifiable by going to a profile,
and looking at the file extension (.cfm).

Coldfusion is one way of doing this. Other alternatives include PHP
and ASP. All are server side languages with built-in database
support.

Hope this helps.

To use ColdFusion ain't cheap, it's even cheap to set up a server with a
load of microsoft licenses.
