>> The only PEAR documentation I've found is at: >Pardon me, what is PEAR? PEAR stands for "PHP Extension and Add-on Repository". It is an attempt to create something similar to Perl's CPAN. The website is found at http://pear.php.net although there is currently very little information there. If you have a fairly new version of PHP you will find a PEAR directory in your distribution. In that there are a number of additional functions for things like DB abstraction, ecommerce, etc. The DB abstraction layer looks promising since it will be distributed along with PHP so if you use you can be sure your code will run just about anywhere. I haven't looked at any of the other functions yet. Unfortunately, there is very little documentation on the entire project at the moment so you have to dive into the source and figure out how to use the stuff. PS - Sorry for the confusion earlier. I accidently replied with the wrong subject. - Jamie >The only PEAR documentation I've found is at: >http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=php-general&m=97362373300452&w=2 >Apparently the current 'official' documentation is in the code itself.
