Hi list, I'm new to PHP, but I found it greate. But I have a question. Recently I've saw a friend using asp and the object record set seems perfect, I mean the function to count records, navigate in throw record (back and forth) everything automatic is amazing. There's a way, to implement such things in PHP?? Thank's in advance Rodrigo
Go look at adodb from http://php.weblogs.com. They have a PHP library that gives you much of the same functionality as the ADO system. Keep in mind that going 'back and forth' in a recordset comes at the expense of a great amount of speed. MS and others will tell you that for good performance you should use 'forward only' recordsets, so it's of limited value to many people anyway. -------------------------- Michael Kimsal http://www.phphelpdesk.com Taking the ? out of <?php 734-480-9961
