cool.
tip: if you're gonna use libs like magpie, in 1 or more projects on a
webserver, i'd put it in htdocs/lib/magpie-x.y.z,
(x.y.z=versionnumber), then require_once('/lib/magpie-x.y.z/[magpie
top include script.inc]') it at the top of
htdocs/projectName/index.php or if it's only to be used in a specific
function of the website, at the top of where-ever the code
handles(starts) that function.
an alternative is htdocs/projectName/lib/magpie-x.y.z
it's not necessary to do it this way, but it does provide faster
management of libs and a decrease in bug-count.
