ok I had some time to do a little digging she told me she wants the script as simple as possible I found python to have a built in database using the following code import anydbm db = anydbm.open("database", "c") db["1"] = "one" db["2"] = "two" db["3"] = "three" db.close() db = anydbm.open("database", "r") for key in db.keys(): print repr(key), repr(db[key]) this code produces result: '2' 'two' '1' 'one' '3' 'three' now any idea on how I would make a searchable database out of this? with subject .... class... section.... student....?? give me just a little direction if you could... I would prefer to use this simple method because they are not really expecting much from this project.... thanks Paul

ok I am running a php dating site.... I have had alot of trouble integrating it to autologin to phpbb when I go from http://abmatch.com into http://abmatch.com/phpBB3 how can I pass the username and password into the file http://abmatch.com/phpBB3/index.php from the file http://abmatch.com/index.php?? I need to safely pass the username and password so I can log the user into the bulletin board please help I have been trying to include the phpbb functions into my site but doesnt work Paul

I am working up some code now.. thanks for the advise people..will post back on my progress later.

my problem is... the users log in to my dating site then when they click the forum they are prompted to log in again... so would the answer be to find the login area's of both sides? and make sure sessions for both are started when they sign in either the forum or the site... or vise versa... this seams the only logical way then? thanks Paul
