If there's one thing I hate it's needless pigeonholing. PHP is not a "Server Side Scripting Language". It is a scripting language for sure, but is by no means limited to being used on a server never mind on a web server. -Stut ------------------------------------- Stut, that's an interesting point you raised. I know it's moving off the original topic, but when you say "by no means limited to being used on a server never mind on a web server", what is it that interprets the code and where does the output go to, or the input come from? I also thought it always had to be run under a web server, and would be interested to know what the other options/opportunities are.
