Well I wouldn't compare PHP and JS. PHP started as a library for building websites and grown to be a language. One of the biggest problem of PHP is inconsistent naming (at least was). JS started as language, it was written by the person with some CS background - a lot of ideas was adopted from other languages, like Scheme and Self.
But yes, they both had explosive growth at some point and took some wrong choices about design.
