To be honest, I hadn't touched that function. That's entirely inherited from the MySQL one, but you're right, for Postgres there's no need to check the version. > *) no ability to delete? The driver has to match that of the MySQL one in Joomla, so I couldn't implement functionality which wouldn't be used by every driver. The only thing I added which differed was a concatentation operator which I put in for future implementation as I believe it will be necessary if they're going to adapt the existing codebase to support multiple database systems. > *) looks like typo on line 713 Yes, that's just left over from me quickly trying to tidy up my comments as I couldn't get the proper version from the site. Please ignore it as it isn't in my actual submission. Thanks Merlin!
