Every time I click on http://www.akbkhome.com/Projects/PHP_Sharp, it
returns to the advert page, so I can't get through. Looks like something
is broken. You might want to get advert-less hosting from somewhere like
yahoo.co.uk, or just to post your ideas to the list as plain text.

I'd be interested to hear what ideas you've come up with in terms of
supporting PHP's large number of built-in functions using the .NET
libraries. Certainly a lot of the functionality is already there, even
more complex features like database abstraction and LDAP. Also, most
languages I know that target the CLI are strongly typed. Doesn't PHP's
being loosely typed present a problem?
