Hello everyone, I'm curious. Which is the better practice? 1) Insert the HTML page (...HTML code) in the database ? or 2) Insert a URL in the database field, that points to the HTML page? why? Any help will be appreciated. Btw, thank you all for helping with my previous questions. ==FOLLOW-UP ==-================ = PHP Ultradev Browser Model == =============================== FYI For those who care about the PHP-Ultradev Server Model (PHAKT). I finally got it to work. Everything works for MySQL. However, you have to make some manual changes for it to work with MS Access. The changes are as follow: 1) You have to add the 'Access' or 'ODBC' "Connection Type", in the server model's CONNECTION File (accessed via Modify->Connection->New). To do so: a) open (from the Ultradev Configuration folder) Connection->PHP->Win->Connection_php_adodb.htm b) add the value pairs access/access, and/or odbc/odbc, to the dropdown list for 'Connection Type'. Without this, you can only select MySQL as the connection type. This means that ADOBD will use the wrong drivers to connect to your DB. 2) There is an ERROR in the ADODB ODBC configuration file. The ODBC file has a format error in the ODBC connection call. (Site Root Folder ->ADODB->adodb-odbc.inc.php) The file tries to connect (to the DB) with $dbh = odbc_connect ('$hostname', $username,$password); That is an error. The correct format is $dbh = odbc_connect ('$DSN_NAME', $username, $password); You do not need to specify the host, for an ODBC connection. That information is already listed in the DSN description. Once that's done. You'll be able to use Ultradev with PHP. I hope that helped. -John Again, thanks to everyone who helped me find this extension. Don't forget my new question :) see above. __________John Monfort_________________ _+-----------------------------------+_ P E P I E D E S I G N S www.pepiedesigns.com "The world is waiting, are you ready?" -+___________________________________+-
