Hi am a new programmer and i am a CS/Graphics major. i have already learned Python, xHTML/CSS and i am in the current stage of learning java( i don't think this top portion really mattered)
my question is what should i learn next? PHP or Ruby on Rails? i am confused on which one to learn. i would like to learn both but i don't know which one i should learn now in order to make the other easier/better to understand
i know that PHP is a scripting language and that RoR is a framework of Ruby.
Thank you all for reading my question

If you already know python and want to learn a web language you might want to consider Django, a web framework in Python. Would be easier than learning a new language.

Syntactically the shortest leap is Ruby, which was influenced by Python. PHP on the other hand has a stronger backing from Perl and C.
