If you use the mysql command line tool, you can pass the -X parameter so that all results will be returned in XML format. Is there an easy way to do that in PHP using the native mysql_*() functions w/o having to manually generate the XML using the result set? Or does anyone know if this is possible using PEAR? I looked at the PEAR docs and it doesn't seem to be possible but I could have missed something. thnx, Chris -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
