I seem to recall seeing something on the Zend site a while back about a "compiler" for PHP that was in the pipeline. After the store was launched I can't find anything. Am I imagining things, or does it look like Zend pulled the plug? Did anyone else in here see it? :) Thanks, Angus.

We would like to distribute it on a CD-ROM so they could access the database offline. Is it possible? Or are there any similar solutions for this? Im thinking of a text-file database and access it via javascript but have no much time to study on this. If php can be run on the cd-rom, that would be a better solution. But any solution you posted here will be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance. Philip
