Hi David I am using adodb for my database abstraction http://php.weblogs.com/adodb
I got it up and running in no time. Just go through this manual http://php.weblogs.com/ADOdb_manual or this tutorial http://php.weblogs.com/adodb_tutorial. It has a RecordCount since some database don't return the number of rows, it has a SelectLimit since databases do the limit syntax differently, it has GenID since some database don't support auto incrementing ids, it lets you do rollbacks for those databases that support it ... There's a whole bunch more functions so just try it out. -----Original Message----- From: David Russell [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: June 13, 2002 10:05 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [PHP] Database Abstraction Suite Hi all I am busy developing a PHP DB application. I obviously want this to be as portable as possible - and then went to the Zend pages. I have looked at the DB abstraction Applications. There are five or so which have all been rated as a four dot (I presume out of 5). Does anyone have any experience with DB Absteraction suites. If so, I need one that supports InterBase/Firebird and also supports MySQL. I would like to know what they are like in terms of ease of learning the generic things, etc, etc. Thanks in advance David Russell -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
