I just wasn't sure from a security stand point that if the dbconfig file is in with the dbclass file, if it really made a difference since they are both off of the webtree and being "included" if you will. :) I much appreciate the feed back. Thanks for your time. Man PHP ROCKS!! However I only feel that I've only begun to scratch the surface of it's power. I still haven't done file uploads and directory listings yet, soon Danielson.....soon. And the sad part is...sigh, I've just finished a b.e.a.utiful login script for one of my client's and now I need to rewrite it so that it's a class, cuz heck I want it for my site too. $smiley = ":)"; include_once(evil_laugh.php); echo $laugh $smiley; //Echo'd: Muuuhahahahahah :) Thanks again. :} Wolf
