Yes, as you'll notice the main page of VBGC is index.php3, not .html. Php3 is basically a database language, similar to CGI or even PERL. Basically Adam has set it up so all he does is type the news and his php page formats everything ... after X number of news articles are on the main page, the code takes the bottom articles and bumps them to the archive. Basically it's a way to make everything MUCH MUCH simpler. This message board is also php3, and is easier to format and maintain. As for the complexity of the code, I'm not sure, as I've never used it. However, I don't think it is any more difficult than other similar languages, and the benefits are huge. alex "enigmatic" kriss atypical-interactive.com
