One more thing -- whenever you connect to a database with a password hard coded into your script, make sure you put the script off of your web document tree. Put the script somewhere where apache won't serve documents, and then include/require this file in your other scripts. That way, if the server ever gets misconfigured, it won't serve your PHP scripts with passwords, etc. as plain text for all to see. -Tim -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/security.filesystem.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+20334 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+20334 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+20334
