    E-Commerce programming language research

    Hi guys, I need to do some research into popular e-commerce stores such as Amazon and Ebay to find out if they use PHP or not. Is there any easy way to do this? (I tried looking at file exensions but no luck) or.. do any of you know the answer?
    I need to find examples of 3 very popular e-commerce stores that use PHP.

    Thanks for your help

    I just saw this one http://www.directprepayphones.co.uk/
    not only uses php, but it is running with osCommerce, os it'll be using php and mysql.

    http://www.7dayshop.co.uk also uses osCommerce - "79088483 requests since Thursday 30 August, 2001"

    as does http://www.caraudiosecurity.com " 12413315 requests since Friday 27 June, 2003"

    Others.. http://www2.cd-wow.com/ perhaps.

    I don't know if these fulfil your requirement. If not, you could try some adult sites, from memory of several years ago, I heard that PHP was a driving force behind them. That's pretty anecdotal though, and even then I'm not sure they'd fall into the 'ecommerce' category.

    I can confidently say that both ebay and amazon are not using php.
