Re: programming question

If you have access to a machien that will run a web server with PHP then you have access to a machine which will run PostgreSQL or MySQL. Setting either up is trivial and it's exactly what you need for this project. That or come up with some sort of flat-file configuration of your own, which will be much more time consuming than installing a SQL database. Just my opinion, good luck! -Mitch ----- Original Message ----- From: Chris Sano <sano@mail.rit.edu> To: Erb, Maria <merb@keene.edu>; <php-general@lists.php.net> Sent: Monday, June 19, 2000 12:24 PM Subject: RE: [PHP-GENERAL] programming question > It would probably make more sense to use a database.
