If you can run your own scripts in the site you want to have access the database, maybe you want to try using SOAP to implement remote services that retrieve the data you need from the database or otherwise execute some other action, all over HTTP. In that case, you may want to try this SOAP server PHP base class that you can use to develop new SOAP services without having to learn too much about the protocol. http://phpclasses.UpperDesign.com/browse.html/package/251 Regards, Manuel Lemos
