If you think about it, GTK cannot be web based, because PHP webpages aren't processed by the client. Just like mod_php4, PHP-GTK requires access to the dll's and exe's on the server. This cannot be done through the http protocol. Neither can anything be pushed out from the server without the client requesting it first. JP php-windows-digest-help@xxxxxxxxxxxxx wrote: You are correct. You can do this as long as PHP and GTK are installed on every client machine, and last I heard that wasn't a standard part of Windows, so you will need to install it on every client machine, (there goes your "nothing to install" goal).
