Creating packages with the same name for multiple sites is generally a recipe for confusion. Following what Michael Peters said, the better way will be to create a properly namespaced package instead. But in the event that the right thing cannot be done, you can consider creating a new interpreter for each site with the Options +Parent config in Apache. Do note that this solution may be memory intensive, and will not scale as broadly as a shared interpreter. IMHO, try to get things right the first time. It's usually more painful to revisit a quick-fix. Marc Lambrichs wrote: > I've taken over some code for a client.
