    replacing single quotes with 2 single quotes

    Error adding record to DB if a field is empty

    Whoops! I figured it out. Other than the "REQUIRED" property there is also a "ALLOW ZERO LENGTH" property, which must be set to "YES". ~jimmy.

    I need an algorithm for Multiplying colors

    Why XML? Why not databases?

    Thanks for your reply MrPeds! I'm still curious as to what advantages XML has over databases (other than cross platform compatibility). Databases can also be used to display the same data in different ways using different style sheets etc. So yeah, I'd really like to use XML, but I need to...
