I think you'll need to be a little bit more specific in what you want to do, webleaner.

PHP is a relatively simpler language to use than ASP.net. Initially,PHP was written in the C programming language to replace a set of scripts in Perl.PHP is just and interpreted language though it is strong enough to develop any kind of page you want to develop.ASP.NET is a part of a framework which means you may use the framework's abilities.Your ASP.NET application can be a part of a mobile, Windows,Windows Service,Smart client or even unmanaged code supported.

PHP is much more common - all the major CMS & e-commerce systems use PHP, so if you want to create any custom addons for them, you WILL need to know PHP.
As mentioned above, learn... HTML > CSS > PHP....then maybe javascript & jquery

I'd go one step further - you can't compare PHP to .NET directly.
PHP is directly comparable to Classic ASP, but for a truly apples-to-apples comparison you need to specify a PHP framework. Cake and Symfony are both popular, but the future of web app coding in PHP is the Zend Framework.
You should also learn design patterns, learn to use a source control system such as SVN or GIT, and learn your way around an IDE. Zend Studio for Eclipse is a good commercial option, or for free software Netbeans is good.

You seem to be a beginner for web development, so you should start with HTML. First got the basic behind the HTML and then move into a programming part. Because without HTML knowledge you can’t be good web developer. My suggestion is ASP.NET. ASP.NET is fastest growing web programming platform in present. ASP.NET there are more web develop architectures like MVC, SOAP and REST.

ASP is slow, expensive, working only with Access and MSSQL DB, and has many bugs (PHP has very low). PHP is much faster because it is on Linux and Unix servers, It's FREE, and very stable.
Google "php vs asp"...

php is easy to learn and open source, you need to learn more about the language for you to buid a good website for starters
I have tutored a few people in web design over the years and I always suggest it is best to start out with HTML + CSS, then move on the JS with some sort of library such as jQuery and then move on to server side scripting. Really.. the server side language you start learning usually ends up being your language of choice however I would suggest PHP as it does seem to be better supported and cheaper to run.
Try installing something like xampp and playing around with it on your local machine. Oh and don't be like so many people out there who try to sell the language to the client rather than the skills you have... unless you know what you are doing any language is a bad choice for your clientele

i think asp is not face out.....there a few of people uses asp because asp is a microsoft platform while php is open source.....just a bit of correction...
