PHP based sites can be made open source with a simple function which will print code of the running script colour-coded.
As for the database, the webmaster could consider creating a page to show database table structure. However, db passwords, usernames should not be divulged for obvious reasons. Care should be taken to keep the actual database access information in an include file which returns nothing when accessed by a browser directly (i.e. inc.php, or a mimetype configured in Apache to be handled by PHP module, and not printed as plain text, etc.). I usually create a function with database access information and call it throughout the site. Others use config files. The important thing to do here is to keep the information out of reach even if you make your site pages open source. shubho > On শুক্র, 2003-07-25 at 23:49, Jaybrata Bhattacharyya wrote: > > i would like to know wheather the php code and database design of > > ilug-cal.org website publicly available or not? > > Publicly available under GPL. > See www.drupal.org > > -sdg- > > -- > > ********************************************* > * The Ankur Project * > Bringing Bangla to Free/Open Source Software > * http://www.bengalinux.org/ * > ********************************************* > > > > > > -- > To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the body > "unsubscribe ilug-cal" and an empty subject line. > FAQ: http://www.ilug-cal.org/node.php?id=3 > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ PHP rockz-and-rulez -- To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the body "unsubscribe ilug-cal" and an empty subject line.
