MDB2

Hi: I am using easyphp 2.0b1 to learn PHP locally on my windows xp laptop..i've managed to sucessfully gain access to the mysql tables using DB.php, but it seems that this is deprecated and replaced with MDB2, but I can't get this module to work..I have installed MDB2..I've tried to install the MDB2_Driver_mysql driver, but it keeps insisting that I have the php extension mysql installed. I've gone under configuration -> php extension and chose mysql/mysqli..no luck..any thoughts?

Hi javajunkie_21,

You are encouraged to use PDO instead of DB / MDB2, since it has about the same functionalities, it's easier to install and setup, and it's guaranteed to be PHP6 compliant -- in fact PHP team is planning to have it the only way to connect DBMS in PHP6.

Anyway, as MDB2 is not a built-in PHP plugin, we cannot provide any support for it (or cannot guarantee it's worth anything). You should get your question answered on the MDB2 project's page : [pear.php.net]
