I think using the database is a fine idea - even if you just serialize a giant array of configuration parameters and stuff them in a TEXT field (less work to set up, but you'll have to use your PHP admin tool to make changes, thereby forsaking your ability to don your wizard robes and pop open a MySQL CLI session to make changes in front of awed management). miguel -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
