| Hi Elizabeth,
Thanks heaps for the help! Sorry about the delay in replying, I've
been in Thailand =)
Feel absolutely free to turn us down, but you wouldn't have the time
and inclination to build us a php/java bridge module for php 5.2.5
(and probably php itself, for apache 2.2.6), would you? (paid, of
course!). I doubt it'd be something I could achieve myself, given my
complete lack of experience using MS's build tools.
Alternatively, I don't suppose you have a sample extension makefile
that I could use as a reference for setting up the php/java bridge
build?
Cheers!
Mike
