> How would I go about installing cURL for PHP on windows box? Start searching for a file named curlphp.dll or similar. First your PHP install, then http://php4win.de if it's back up, then http://php.net then, like Google or http://dogpile.com or whatever. If all of that fails, then probably nobody has created such a DLL for you, and the real fun starts... You *COULD* start looking for a cURL COM object out there on the Microsoft-centric sites (expect to pay for it) and try to use PHP's COM support to talk to it. Or, you *COULD* snag the cURL sources and VC++ 6.0 or higher and try to compile them yourself. You'll probably soon find out why it doesn't exist, but with diligence and some work might become famous for being the guy who *made* it work :-) [That's pretty much how OpenSource software works...] You may find it easier to just switch to Un*x where it just works :-) -- WARNING richard@zend.com address is an endangered species -- Use ceo@l-i-e.com Wanna help me out?
