This sounds cool. (I prefer the date over the md5 sum btw.)

Heh, that's not how xmlrpc works though, all parameters are part of the POST data. Alan, if you want new functionality in the xmlrpc interface, take a look at pearweb/include/pear-database.php. All the methods there with a "proto" comment in front are exported automatically through xmlrpc. - Stig
