Readers, Admittedly, a biased place to ask (!), but for a new database project, how best to evaluate whether postgresql or xquery should be used. As a novice of postgresql and xml, am not sure what is most appropriate for a new database that will be tested initially on a local computer, then transferred to a web server at some point in the future. For now, just reading about the two technologies before deciding. It seems that an established system would be: data entered to various sql tables and stored on server; php used to query table and deliver data, for example as xhtml and css; user views query results as a table of values in a web page. What does xquery do as a better advantage (if at all)? -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
