How bout a flame? WHAT THE HECK ARE YOU ASKING THIS QUESTION ON THIS LIST FOR?!!! Just kidding. :-) I can't give any stats or anything like that but I decide to go with CGI version because it still runs rather nicely and isn't very intense. You could also do this.. for very simple php scripts that don't require intense functions or connections create a file extension specific for the ISAPI version, like .phps (for simple) and then create a file mapping for the CGI version of PHP using .php or .phtml and take advantage of both. -- Thomas Deliduka IT Manager ------------------------- New Eve Media The Solution To Your Internet Angst http://www.neweve.com/
