I have no complaints with the work of Daniel Veillard, and I didn't say that MSXML was better. I said there is "power and "flexibility" in the fact that MSXML libs interoperate (you explained it better than I ;). My point is this: if there were a unified interface for accessing libxml & libxslt, and it was compiled by default, i think that it would attract developers and stregthen PHP's image as a viable alternative to other web development platforms. And I love developing with PHP and XML, so I would be quite happy :) I didn't know that compiling with just domxml gave xslt as well. are you sure of this? > You obviously cannot make the language responsible for the decisions of > hosting provider system administrators. Obviously not, and I wouldn't try. It's just not a viable solution to say "look at all the extensions we have", when they may as well not even exist to many PHP users. dietrich -- PHP Development Mailing List <http://www.php.net/> To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
