One way to increase security for business applications is to authenticate against the database, something like: mysql_connect ("localhost", $username, $password); where $username and $passwords were originally passed to the application over a secure form and stored as session variables. This is particularly useful if you need fine-grained access controll (you can let the db engine police the db files,etc). -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mysql-connect.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+18516 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+18516 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+18516
