We use it here (although you can't tell because we have set up the extension
to be .html)

It queries a mysql database for the metadata as well as building up the
pages.

Subject: [PHP] Help me pervade Bristol City council to use PHP


Am talking to a part Bristol City Council in the UK.  To persuade them to 
use PHP I need to find some high profile reference sites.

Looked on php.net but all the sites were technical support sites, not 
really corporate or government sites.  This is not very good, the MySQL lot 
have a very good list of sites at 
http://www.mysql.com/press/user_stories/index.html and the following quote 
on there site

"The MySQL database has an estimated 4,000,000 active installations 
worldwide, and up to 27,000 copies of MySQL are downloaded per day. Major 
corporations such as Yahoo!, Cisco, NASA, Lucent Technologies, Motorola, 
Google, Silicon Graphics, HP, Xerox and Sony Pictures rely on MySQL for 
heavy-duty, mission-critical applications."

This is exactly the type of thing I need for PHP and am supervised it is 
not on the PHP site.

So..

Can anyone give me some sites who use PHP that the people at Bristol city 
Council would of heard of (i.e. high profile sites).

Also I think this type of thing should be on php.net.

Ben
