I wonder if it's possible to adapt the CGI version of PHP as a Netscape
plugin, or to associate the extension of php files to some kind of php
wrapper. This would require distributing a browser with the CD for this
specific CD, but it could work.
For a Unix-only kludge, I found this page,
http://home.netscape.com/newsref/std/x-remote.html
It seems to me, by playing with with the application associations, one
could get php to write to a temporary file, and then use netscape's
-remote openFile to read it. I imagine, though, that if this works, it
would be rather unstable.
MySQL would be a whole 'nother can of worms.
Just playing with ideas.

That which indicates nothing
introduces everything.
