I’m working on creating an AJAX-based web-to-print system right now, and was just doing a mental tally. I didn’t think about it until today, but when you’re coding something like this, you’re using HTML (granted, that’s not what many would consider code, but oh well), CSS, Javascript, PHP and SQL all at the same time. That’s a mess, and kind of tough to keep in your head. You web devs know what I mean. Then again, maybe I’m an idiot for coding all of this by hand. There’s probably some kick-ass tool that does it for you.
You should consider Django. You already know python, and it follows the Model View Controller paradigm nicely, and abstracts SQL into pythonic classes, among other things. Much more fun than working with PHP, anyway!
