texte = Writing a cart number generator in php would would be trivial. Probablywouldn't take 6 lines of code to make it a function your could include onyour pages. Along with having standard if statements where you can supplymultiple conditions, having extremely fast code parsing, and having randomfunctions that really work, php is a very stable language where you candepend on things working as documented.MySQL's ability to have field types makes it superior in my opinion. Autoincrement fields makes setting new SKU's ultra easy. When a MySQLdatabase is setup correctly, it works like a dream. I've seen MySQLdatabases take 100's of hits per minute and not flinch when used withlogging authentication for ISP dialup.php being free is an obvious advantage and I don't think someone shouldlook for a new line of work if they would choose it for the price. I knowif I could save my employer a couple of thousand dollars here or there,they probably wouldn't be angry at me..---jereme claussen --b-r-o-k-e-n-m-a-c-h-i-n-e--jtc@brokenmachine.com -http://www.brokenmachine.com/On Fri, 4 Feb 2000 jpeacock@univpress.com wrote:..[snipped]..-------------------------------------------------------------Brought to you by CommuniGate Pro - The Buzz Word Compliant Messaging Server.To end your Mail problems go to
