RE: [PHP-DB] PHP Standalone? (fwd)

Hi there, Unfortunately I don't know much Perl at all ATM, and I've suddenly has this job arise that needs me use an ACCESS Database (Yuck) but in a windows-style interface and NOT web, so I have been looking hard to try to find information on whether I can create an interface for 2000/XP that can control and receive results from PHP. If you have any tips I would be really appreciative :-) I just download PHP-GTK.

(fwd) while php can be set up to do what you're after, i think that perl would be a better choice. while i use both php and perl, i think that perl is a much stronger general scripting language. if you need [web]server parsed pages, then php has an advantage (unless you want to use mod_perl), but in a standalone environment i think that perl will serve you better. ---------- Forwarded Message ---------- Date: Thursday, February 05, 2004 04:19:56 PM -0800 From: "Frank M.
