Python with Rev and postGreSQL?

[John Tregea]

Hi Dan,

I will have a look at PHP and Ruby, I have seen your comments on Ruby 
(in other threads) and been intrigued by the possibilities. I have used 
Tango and Lasso at various times with both WebStar (OS9) and Apache 
(OSX) with FMPro 5.5 and 6 as a db for web and intranet projects but 
that is my only experience with cgi work.

Lots to learn, but what an adventure hey...


Regards

John T
