Hi Chris, thanks for answering. My apologies about mysql. I would certainly prefer not to depend soly on the volunter work of others but rather contribute myself. However I do not have a clue about c, porting or such (yet). I only program in PHP, and not bad, which certainly doesn't make me a capable c programmer.
