Toomas, Why not take a different approach? Write a tiny program for their servers which does an LWP::get against your server to fetch the content from the database, and insert it appropriately into a template which they are responsible for and on a hardcoded path. This is the approach I take with my product SIMPL that provides a similar service, albeit for website creation. It'll also relieve you of the lion's share of bandwidth considerations which might vary greatly from site to site you're serving, and should insulate you from any security concerns with other designer's HTML and (esp.) Javascripting. hth, Marty -- SIMPL-tm WebSite Creation: http://face2interface.com/Home/Demo.shtml Complementary Color Picker: http://face2interface.com/WebSafe -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
