Hi, > Also why is this value > stored in the actual script instead of in some kind of .ini file? reading variables is much easier than parsing INI files. :-) Most PHP applications (e.g. phpMyAdmin) don't come with INI files, some come with config.php files where these kind of variables are set, so this is really typical.
