Perhaps it's interesting to comment that without any knowledge about what hell was signals, containers, connectors, etc, one can in 2 hours surfing throw internet, build something that works. It's a pitty not to have some more (at least one :-) examples about php-gtk and libglade, because it's very very easy to build "complex" interfaces in minutes and put your main effors in the code. FYI Glade is a graphical tool within you can construct the appereance of your aplication (you know buttons, texts, etc). The cool stuff is that Glade generates an xml file with the definition of the created interface. All the programs with libglade support (for ex: php-gtk) could read this xml file, build the interface and auto connect all the signals, so you only need to code the functions to handle those signals (this is one of the reason why my app only have 30 lines and not 150). Sure others could explain this much better than me :) Tomas V.V.Cox
