Benoit,

I haven't seen this message until now. What does Rob mean by this:

So, if I'd hire some server with server access, it wouldn't do? Let me 
explain: I've set up a server for my own business, it's a virtual server 
hosted on a German provider, and couple of weeks ago I was curiuous and 
tried to compile Gambas on it. No problem. On the internal server I had 
got Gambas running under Apache (though it was somewhat tricky and I 
forgot to take notes as usual...) and now I hoped to be able to get some 
of this functionality for the public server in my website (due to lack 
of time I haven't followed this anymore, but it's still a plan).

What is different from this what you would need?

Hm. Don't know if that is much... no experience. But it's way more than 
on my website ;-) Though transfer volume on my server is free, 300 MB 
isn't much today, is it?, and mysql is freely accessible. In other 
words: I can do with it what I want, but I am responsible for it, too.

Ok, this is one, though more like couple of questions...

Regards

Rolf
