Just out of curiosity, and to anyone that might know, how difficult would it be to port PHP to an AxtiveX scripting engine like the jscript.dll, vbscript.dll or PerlScript (or is there a project already started) ? I was thinking about this the other day and the possibilities are interesting to say the least, to be able to do client side scripting (win32 only I assume) with PHP4 and utilizing all the power of the available libraries (mysql, ldap, imap, etc).There is currently no such project it probably shouldn't be that hard although I have no idea how the interface works. There would be some interesting applications but I doubt these would include connecting to a database server. You don't want to have the database password on the clients' machine.
