I understand this as that you are trying to deal with the (in)famous readers&writer problem here? There is a basic technique to deal with this, and it is called an "atomic action". In an RDBMS you can perform an atomic action by starting up a transacation with the highest isolation level. However, in most case you don't need to be _that_ much "atomic", and a lower transaction lever might very well be optimal solution most purposes (unnecessary high isolation levels degrades performance.) //Anders - idiot -- PHP Windows Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
