PHP on IIS will get better soon, see: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2009/05/25/dziuba_microsoft_php/ However, why anyone would choose any part of the MS stack to host their LAMP app is beyond me. Ubuntu Server w/ LAMP takes about 20 minutes to install and works wonderfully out of the box is free and incredibly well maintained. - jake > Justin > _______________________________________________ > New York PHP Users Group Community Talk Mailing List > http://lists.nyphp.org/mailman/listinfo/talk > > http://www.nyphp.org/Show-Participation > _______________________________________________ New York PHP Users Group Community Talk Mailing List http://lists.nyphp.org/mailman/listinfo/talk http://www.nyphp.org/Show-Participation
