Hi PHP5 should support a standardized oo way to access databases of any type. I heard that mysqli will include a oo way to access the database. This api should be the standard for all other database extensions. All future extensions should have their native functions as it is now and have to implement the Database api.
An idea of how this api might look like can be seen at http://home.t-online.de/~s0nix/odbx/mysql.htm This includes a small implementation based on the mysql extension for testing purposes.
