Re: Creating GUI bindings for PHP

Despite PHP is more taylored to Web applications, I think it is helpless to avoid it to become a more general purpose scripting language. Anyway, I think it would be better to interface with a GUI abstraction package instead, so PHP GUI programs could run on non-Unix platforms too. Check the PIGUI FAQ (Platform Independent GUI). >this even possible with the current zend-engine? How would one go about to >create a module for php that can call actual php-script functions as >callbacks? In PHP 4 it's easier. Just take a look at developers documentation. If you need help just ask in the PHP developers mailing list. Regards, Manuel Lemos Web Programming Components using PHP Classes.
