If you're concerned about large traffic volume, you should give some serious considerations to mod_perl. It, and select scripts, will remain resident therefore avoiding all of the costly setup imposed by CGI. It's quick, well tested, and a pretty popular option. Popularity may sound trivial, but exploits get fixed in popular apps long before those in obscure ones. It can be a bit memory heavy, but memory is cheap. PHP is cake to program in and pretty useful, but it's SLOW and rather ugly to admin. Thank You, Cody Baker cody@wilkshire.net
