Lawrence I didn't see this message before I responded to the other one. Can you e-mail me directly and give me your phone number so Michael can talk to you? No point both of us doing the same thing, if we can somehow link the database to both Wikis.

Hi,
Reguarding the suggestions on the plant DB I had 2 ideas:

I'm sure all these ideas have been hashed over before by professional
fields. Though while searching sourceforge, I note that they seem to be
focused highly on technical issues. It'd be nice to get a few programmers
interested in creating a opensource plant db of the sort above. It seems the
opensource community has an ethic of the public good, perhaps it could be
applied toward these things.


It could be a MySQL database connected directly to PHPWiki which already uses
MySQL for its own database, which makes everything that we see in the Wiki possible.

It is conceivable that the PHPWiki developers might be interested in providing hooks to
another, external, database, our plant db from the index.php which runs the software.
Additional PHP scripts would need to be written for the database front end and might be run as
Wiki Plugins from within our PC Wiki, to access the plant database.
