Well - usually you don't need to draw a map to a house, since maps of most areas in the world already exist. Did you mean "no reason to publish the address of a house..."? But where does this end... "no reason to do let anyone even know you exist at all?" *scnr* Concerning PHP: Code is not more secure, just because it is closed source. I don't think, that any security expert will tell the opposite. -- Arno Welzel http://arnowelzel.de http://de-rec-fahrrad.de
