The whole point of PDO was that anything that was not available across ALL drivers would be emulated in some way, or flagged in a way that does not break code, so nothing should be added specifically targeting a particular driver if it will cause problems when someone selects a different driver to run the same application. The question today is if PDO is actually the right base to be building on, or should a better attempt be made at solving the cross database problems. ADOdb is still the better benchmark for a lot of the 'loose ends' that plague PDO. -- Lester Caine - G8HFL ----------------------------- Contact - http://lsces.co.uk/wiki/?page=contact L.S.Caine Electronic Services - http://lsces.co.uk EnquirySolve - http://enquirysolve.com/ Model Engineers Digital Workshop - http://medw.co.uk Rainbow Digital Media - http://rainbowdigitalmedia.co.uk
