Does the app otherwise use a database? If so, it'd be nothing to put the info in an extra table somewhere. I don't think there's such a thing as a "canonical"/portable way for this: webapps are supposed to be self-contained, somewhat sealed products (as far as on-disk files). The plus side is, this leaves plenty of room for creative solutions. -or not-so-creative solutions, such as, "put it in a database." ;) -QM -- software -- http://www.brandxdev.net tech news -- http://www.RoarNetworX.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
