.php is a file extension used for web pages for pages using the PHP language. PHP is similar to PERL, but not so user hostile. I use it on my site for navagation - it makes adding new pages very easy. It's used a lot for connecting to web database. I'm kinda assuming we're screwed for the Mec4D vs. Mecom4D. I had a feeling the site would start having issues - renderocity, poser4u (I think there was another after that) and now Mecom4D. I just figured it would take longer for the latest meltdown. All of her sites seem to go poof after a certain amount of time. Stupid me, I thought this one would take a bit longer than it did.
