I don't prefer C# and certainly not vb.net. The problem is that there is no working solution for web work available for Lazarus/FPC that meets my needs. 1. It works. 2. I should not have to divert an appreciable amount of my life to learning how to use the technology or getting it to work. 3. Must support database connection/object pooling. Powtils and other only cgi frameworks by their nature do not support object pooling. The only other option that I saw was apache dso's using the fpWeb framework but that did not turn out too well and I spent quite a long time trying to get apache to load the dso (which it would not) let alone actually running it. Also, please don't misunderstand me, I like lazarus/fpc and I have a strong appreciation for the work that its contributors do. I would be happy to look at any other solutions for lazarus/fpc that I have not found that meet the above criteria. -- Warm Regards, Lee _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lazarus.freepascal.org http://www.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
