http://www.wtv-zone.com

It's meant for WebTV users, but has perl and php. It has some bizzare tools like webbased ftp uploaders (somewhat useful) and is fast.

That doesn't make much sense because WebTV can't support perl and php, or much of anything, for that matter

WebTV most certainly does support perl and php. Perhaps you should actually use one before insulting it. It's a very capable browser.

You'd hope it would support something that is server side heh. It was java and js that it didn't handle, but I thought they were working on that. It has been about a year or more since I looked into anything relating to webTV.

Js is working fine on WebTV. If you want JAVA, buy a computer. WebTV, depending on the model, costs between 80-200 bucks. Not bad for the price.

For your info, I have used WebTV for two years, and mine didn't support ANYTHING and neither did my boyfriends. I don't know, maybe they actually improved it since I used it last

For your info, I've had a Webtv since they first came out. It has always supported Perl.

This thread has gone off topic big time. Has anyone tried Wtv-zone? 5 bucks a month for 15mb and all of the features I stated before.
