What are the pluses and minuses you get from using php as a middleman to access a mySQL database on a server versus accessing the mySQL database directly from LC?
Web sources typically mention two main benefits: php runs on any platform, and it's easier to create dynamic web pages. I think the first one really has to do with using php over any other server side language rather than direct vs indirect db access. So assuming I have a Livecode application that does not generate dynamic web pages, what other reasons might there be to use php (or not)? And if I do use php, how do I protect against sql injection attacks? _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
