Thread: access primitives in php
We need to set up some primitives in php for mysql, then repeat for postgresql, so that we bury most of the differences in the primitives. I'm pretty sure I can do this myself, but would like to avoid re-inventing the entire wheel, if possible. I know I'm asking for a handout here, but my searching skills seem weak this week. Anyone know of some good tutorial material on the subject? (I am not interested in arguments about which is better, by the way. The requirements of the current project specify that we do both.) -- Joel Rees <joel@alpsgiken.gr.jp>

If you're doing this via PHP, you might look at metabase and adodb libraries.

You too, Dennis. I think this will move us way ahead of where I was headed. -- Joel Rees <joel@alpsgiken.gr.jp>
