As i recall Yahoo uses PHP. Quick Google turned up: http://public.yahoo.com/~radwin/talks/yahoo-phpcon2002.htm Also i remember it was a pretty big deal when Friendster switched to PHP.

O'Reilly has a good article. http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/wlg/5155 Google around some, especially on the Friendster switch, which as I recall caused quite a stir, for more information. -k. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
