AxKit1 and 2 differ greatly. If you were using custom providers, caching or other AxKit-specific code, then it would mean a major refactoring. If all you do is XSP, XSLT and XPathScript, it should be quite painless, but still some work. > Would upgrading to 1.7 solve this problem?

I won't address your AxKit1 issue, as I never used axkit:// uris, and it has been quite a while anyways. An upgrade to AxKit2 probably won't be painless, as AxKit2 doesn't have axkit:// uris, or, for that matter, caching by default. This is actually a good thing: AxKit2 is designed to make writing plugins extremely easy, and that way you have full control over what gets cached and when and how. Much cleaner than messing with axkit uris. So, if you can spare some hours to learn AxKit2, go ahead, it's really nice to work with. If you need 2 hours upgrade, and everything is like before, then don't do it. -- CU Jörg --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
