Ok I think I am a little confused... with regards to include() and require(), if I knew the name of a file on say brownstone.com and that file was called database.inc and it contained all the connection settings for brownstone.com's database. Say I run a website called hacktheplanet.com and I wanted to include brownstones.com database.inc file in one of my own scripts so I could run searches on their inventory from my domain. Is this or is this not possible? Thanks in advance, Jas
