I think it simplifies my code quite a lot, since I don't have to think about sessions and login pages and the like... -- Magnus Lie Hetland The Anygui Project http://hetland.org http://anygui.org _______________________________________________ Webware-discuss mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/webware-discuss
