I think he meant 'application()' - application-scope variables, like session-scope variables. The answer is 'no', but you can 'roll your own' functionality pretty easily if you need to. Application variable were/are a big pain in the ASP world, ime, because people abuse them. There's rarely MUCH data you need to pass around globally and modify like that that wouldn't be better off in a database. >> 4th >> sessions, can they be accessed from an asp script and the other way >> round? > > > No, they cannot.

Short answer is no - probably for the questioner's needs, but it's possible it can be done in some unique situations. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
