Well I might be a bit objective since I have only been using php for years and years so my answer is obviously, PHP. At least in the past, PHP was a lot faster than asp when it came to parsing the pages. Not sure how it's like these days though. I'd still say go for PHP and then maybe learn a php framework like cakePHP or Codeigniter to write code faster that is easier to learn. Off course some basic programming knowledge will help as well, i.e. basic knowledge of php and mysql.
Just my two cent anyway.
