Re: Sorting db entries by Year-Month

Simply wonderful news:> But again, for design work, it isn't worth the trouble. I'm using SESSION variables $_POST, $_SESSION, and as long as they don't change, there's little point upgrading until the site is on-line. However, I will inform my IP to use all the latest versions. I'm running Linux-Mandrake 8.2 and the distro's Apache, PHP, and PostgeSQL. I've rolled my own, but the distro's added features persuaded to use them. When the site is finished, I will 'roll-my-own' and upgrade. Unfortunately, PostgreSQL and PHP tend to like spreding themselves all over my hardrive. It took me quite a bit of time to get my first versions working together. So, as long as they haven't changed the functions, the vulnerablities are a moot point at this time. Good to be aware of them, however. Thanks for your concern. Regards, Andre On Tuesday 23 July 2002 10:42 pm, you wrote: > Yeah.
