I find ADODB to be totally overkill and messy for just about any application. PEAR DB has a nice and clean interface but it is tied into the still rather immature PEAR classes which bothers me. I personally use the PHPLIB DB abstraction and I find it very fast and clean. Each database abstraction library is self-sufficient, unlike PEAR DB. Plus thousands of programmers have been using PHPLIB for years so it is mature and has a great user base. It is not perfect but it has functioned beautifully for several large projects I have worked on. Each DB layer has its advantages and disadvantages. My suggestion is to try each of them for a couple dozen lines of code and see which one you like. Brent __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
