thanks for pointing out the database list.
well, u can consider the files as a measure of the size. the database 
required will have the same number of tables as there are files. in each 
table there will be two values(text messages)
The html page will query the database and will have to produce the texts 
from the file and send it to the browser.
this is a short description. so what do u say?
