That's the way to go. Just keep in mind that you will have to consider ways of preventing overloading your courses due to concurrency, whether you use table locks or devise your own mechanism. I don't know if you are allowing students to self-enroll or not. You just don't want two users to both see that a course has one opening left and both try to take that spot at the same time. Andrew
It's very low volume at the moment, so I don't think there will be an immediate problem.
However, I will investigate locking the tables for entry. But I don't think using transactions will be necessary.
Thanks again for all the help Andrew el al. Cheers, tedd -- ------- http://sperling.com http://ancientstones.com http://earthstones.com -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
