Re: database on CD

I did this once by dumping everything into JavaScript arrays. I used PHP to generate the HTML/JavaScript files that were tested on Jaz cartridges in non-PHP computers, and then we burned CDs from that. This then only requires that you get the JavaScript right (which is not too tricky for just iterating through arrays), and that the user be willing to turn on JavaScript in the first place. Very low-tech, and very easy install, since they need nothing but a browser. YMMV. -- WARNING richard@zend.com address is an endangered species -- Use ceo@l-i-e.com Wanna help me out? Like Music?
