Jay, guys. Thanks very much for all your responses on this issue. I'm sorry if I don't always reply through the group but if I am working from the office I have a problem connecting to the mailing list. which is just one of the reasons I prefer working from home.
I, along with your help, have instilled some level of confidence in the languages I am using within my colleagues here at work. even though I am knew, I am no newbie to programming and designing databases and knew that PHP and MySQL would be up to the job. I'm particularly interested in what you are doing with them Jay. I was very surprised to see how many record manipulations your system manages on a daily basis - maybe one day eh...? again: thanks very much :) -- ----------------------------- Michael Mason Arras People www.arraspeople.co.uk ----------------------------- "Jay Blanchard" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] [snip] > On Wed, 11 Aug 2004 18:20:23 -0400, Lukasz Karapuda <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >>Why I chose to reply to your email is because PHP is not usually used for >>the development of more complex functionality like the Web site module that >>we have developed. > > I beg to differ.

Take TYPO3, for example: http://www.typo3.org I'll second that, PHP is an excellent choice for website development - especially when supported by the correct web server and database ;) [/snip] I'll third this. Extremely complex applications are programmed using PHP. I responded off list to Michael about this, but we are using PHP to process and report on millions of records per day in MySQL databases. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
