My mail was because I got really disturbed while reading the mail, and I think people should know about other was of designing an SQL application (or even better was of designing your PHP app). Hopfully I will be giving a 2 hour course at the Linux meeting here at my local city (Santa Fe, Argentina) about using PEAR (or other tools of abstraction) to get better, and easier to maintain PHP programs. And to finish, I don't have the same opinion as you have on (2) because I have read to much junk from the MySQL dev team (things like "primary keys are useless"). Just my 2 cents. P.D.: Yes, Oracle is pretty nice. -- 17:57:01 up 6 days, 9:47, 4 users, load average: 0.96, 0.75, 0.57 ----------------------------------------------------------------- Martín Marqués | mmarques@unl.edu.ar Programador, Administrador, DBA | Centro de Telematica Universidad Nacional del Litoral ----------------------------------------------------------------- -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
