Puhhh... Ok, that's a relief.

Yeah right, and then somebody has to administrate the stuff, write the CGI scripts (if somebody wants more than isqlplus), bother about all the security patches and generally maintain just another set of software. Isqplus isn't worth that, IMHO. And any other web application gets developed on one of the company webservers, maintained by another department.

I like to keep things simple.

Lots of greetings!
