Hi.. Intresting idea, but you really should forget about that extension.. It doesn't really work, it's no longer under development and it's not supported afaik.. :p In PHP5, a new extension, named FFI will replace w32api.. I don't think it's included, so you'll have to get it from pecl or snaps.php.net..
Also, shouldn't you use some hWnd? 0 seems a bit bad... :p But anyway, I don't really have any idea what I'm writing about.. Oh, and you might wanna try other PHP versions.. I had code working in 4.2.* and maybe even 4.3.0, that doesn't work with latest versions... -- // DvDmanDT MSN: dvdmandt€hotmail.com Mail: dvdmandt€telia.com "Bill Zeller" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> skrev i meddelandet news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Hey guys, > > I have a non-standard question regarding Windows programming. > > My objective is to create a small PHP wrapper for some basic win32 api > stuff, such as creating message boxes and some dialog windows.
