Bah...  Real men use perl! :)

However, you shooting down php because it is easy, seems silly as the 
person in question is a beginner.  And Security being a major concern 
for an internal system is also a bit overboard.  After all, ruby won't 
fix leaving the database open to "world" which is what most beginners do 
when they need to access it from the system next door.
