Hi all,
We have developed an easy-to-use web-based database of the messages sent to
the PHP-General Mailing List. This db will let you search for messages
based on subject, message text, or author. The db contains every message
sent on the PHP-General list since Election Day (11-7-2000) and will give
you the 50 most recent by default.
You can use this db freely, and free of advertising, to search for answers
to your questions you would normally post to the mailing list, for often
times the messages posted have been posted before. Also, the db can be used
by anyone, not just mailing list members.
We are also looking to enhance the db to better support the PHP community,
so any suggestions of enhancements or criticisms are very welcome.
The site can be found at:

A sister site for MYSQL can be found at:

Some pointers to using the system.
The system will display the 50 most recent messages by default
The search is NOT case sensitive
When viewing a message, the subject and the author are links.
The author link will automatically create a new mail message to
the original author and the mailing list with the previous
message already quoted in the message text
The subject link will create a new search for those rows that
match the subject in the message currently being viewed
Anyway, take a look and tell us what we should do to improve the db.
Thanks,
