Hi,
We are in phase of evaluating PHP as Serverside technology for our first web

We have finalized Flex for user interface and Birt as reporting engine. Now

We would like to implement SOA for databa

Depends on how you look at it, I'd take the perspective that that's a

Hell no!
Why would they be overwritten?
An HTTP request is sent from user A, the interpreter is "compiling"
the PHP script with the received HTTP request variables and send back
the HTTP response to user A, during this time the same thing happens
with user B.
I can't think of any possible reason
Let's say user A and user B submitting purchase order form with "order.php"
at the same time, with method=post action='confirmation.php'.
(1) Will $_POST['order'] submitted by user A replaced by $_POST['order']
submitted by user B, and the both user A & B getting the same order, which

You can run it on port 80 but you'll need to make sure there's not
