A lot of places in Canada use MS based web servers and I think PHP is mostly Unix-centric. :-) A lot of applications are only for Windows so a lot of places make the choice to go for Windows web servers. They end up buying an MS solution and most everyone who sells MS solutions is pushing ASP. I'm not an integrator but this is the way it seems to me. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
