You can spend a small fortune in ASP adding in COM objects (or writing them) so it will eventually have maybe HALF the functionality of PHP. http://php.net/ ASP's "Object Oriented" feature set is a joke. All the "object"-ness is built into pre-packaged stuff from MS -- You can't actually create a class. ASP has no include function. This makes life very very very difficult to write decent code. ASP database drivers are slower than PHP's, for those few databases that ASP even supports. $$$ -- ASP costs a *LOT* more than PHP, by the time you get done factoring in *ALL* expenses. -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
