I think it would be best to focus on SQL 92 because: A) It's unlikely that a significant number of Zend Cert questions would be THAT picuyane to depend on SQL99 (?) or SQL03 (??) B) Most db platforms haven't even caught up to SQL92 yet, not fully. They're all "close" but none are "done". So you may miss a question or two because of the difference between reality and the Cert test question, but you won't miss a whole bunch of them. > - Should I learn to use another HTTP server? HTTP server? It might be good to play with PHP on a Windows box, just to see what it's like... Not with IIS, though, as that's just TOO painful :-) There are enough differences there to stretch your mind a bit, and to get a better picture of how it all fits together, without driving you crazy. Another SQL server would probably be even more useful. PostgreSQL is probably the easiest (and certainly the cheapest) to try from a MySQL background. And PostgresQL is picky enough that all the bad habits you picked up in MySQL will get corrected pretty quick-like. :-) PS MySQL 5 has settings that allow it to be more standard, and that's a Good Thing (tm) imho. -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
