But that's scary for the user (granting some company access to your server???). Isn't there another way? I was thinking I could keep crucial function libraries in a database (not sure if that is possible??) and then just update them like that, no write access hassles. Can that be done? Can you keep your functions in a database and "include" them from there? Peter -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
