[Haskell-cafe] Can I use Haskell for web programming

[Neil Mitchell]

Hi,

>    Can I use Haskell to do what people do with, say, PHP?

I wrote Hoogle (http://haskell.org/hoogle) using Haskell, without
using any libraries - just directly as a console program. It's open
source so you can download it and see how its done, if you want. Of
course the web handling bit is more low level than WASH and HSP.

Thanks

Neil
