See http://www.php.net/manual/en/configuration.php#ini.sect.extension and http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.dl.php for more info on those. Note, though, that this functionality won't be enabled on every server, often for security reasons. I'm not sure how much of an issue it really needs to be, though. Are you running into people who are surprised that your programs won't work on their server? (Could this mean that you need to take a look at how clearly the requirements are communicated?) --- Mark Roedel | "A modern US Navy cruiser now requires Systems Programmer | 26 tons of manuals.
