I think that if Adobe really wants to bill Apollo as taking the best-of web technology and putting it on the desktop, then they need to seriously consider including a DB that speaks SQL.
Personally, I think it would be *fantastic* if Apollo was essentially an embedded webserver, i.e. stripped down Apache (or similar) where I could choose to generate documents using PHP and have a DB backend like MySQL. Basically Zinc + Flex + WAMP, all in one executable. Now *that* would be cool... Troy. On 09 Mar 2007 08:57:58 -0800, Matt Chotin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
