He should have some sort of database on his hosting, i.e MySQL.
Not all hosts provide SQL Databasees Darren, being a host I thought you'd know that :rolleyes:.
It would cost a host less to not include databases. It looks like flat files is the only way, unless you host the SQL databases on another host.
Come on Simon, you know darren.Quote:

if you get me then use the php explode function to brake it up?
Dan
If you going to have many things separated with ~ I would recommend using split and a for loop.
Can you explain more please.Quote:
