well for one.. c++ is precompiled application thats written. where as php is a scripting language that is thrown through an interpretor(spelling) and then spits out the results.

lots of bench marks against the two.. simple..
compile a program once.. give stuff to spit out.. or..

compile give/ get results.. over and over and over again.

php is just easier to use. but if you want speed and so forth c++ and mysql++ (the c++ library for mysql) is a way to go.

what are you looking to do? hit me up on icq.
