PDO isn't a replacement for ADOdb, it's a future replacement for ext/mysql, ext/pgsql, ext/oci8, ext/odbc, etc. etc. etc. If you want a database abstraction layer, stick with ADOdb and let John adapt that to run on top of PDO. WHY can't you be bothered to read the resources I've pointed you all at, where I explain this? --Wez.
