TIA! I used PHP and MySQL Web Development (Welling/Thomson). In my opinion, it's ok, that the book is written for MySQL as the name of the functions differ, however, the results you may get in connection with php are mostly the same. Furthermore I use Quanta as Editor for the Scripts; you can integrate the php-documentation in the programm. The highlightning is alright (sometimes problems, if you are using single quotes). -- --//--\\-- Eckhard Hoeffner e-hoeffner@xxxxxxxxxxx Tal 44 D-80331 München
