The example in PHP that I have is a recipe server that has a variable number of ingredients. You can add more than the default (5) and then pass them back to the server and have it added. This made some real fun on both ends, with me having to create variables like ingred0 through ingred10. It made for fun.
I do remember doing it with CGI.pm, but it was more for convenience than any other reason. -Mark On Thu, 2002-03-07 at 11:11, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > In a message dated: 07 Mar 2002 11:03:59 EST > Mark Komarinski said: > > >Nope.
