So how would you expect to deal with a new MS runtime environment for PHP? I suppose, no matter how many times the message "This version of PHP requires this pack of files from Microsoft" with a link to the files you are still going to get users complaining that their PHP doesn't work. Just like the number of bogus Doc bugs for the CHM being downloaded via IE (See the warning on http://www.php.net/download-docs.php). -- ----- Richard Quadling Zend Certified Engineer : http://zend.com/zce.php?c=ZEND002498&r=213474731 "Standing on the shoulders of some very clever giants!" -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
