Hi, I am beginner php programmer and want to develop some dynamic web pages using PHP and MySQL. At this point I am so confused on what method to use. AFAIK there are four methods ========== mysql mysqli PEAR::DB PEAR::MDB2 ========== Examples in some books are based on "mysql". Some recommends mysqli. Some recommend using PEAR DB. When I browsed PEAR website, DB module is obsolete now and new NDB2 is the latest. my problem is I am new to all of this and don't know where to start. I am using FC5 and PHP5 is intalled. My question is: ================= Where do I start? Should I start with mysql and progress to PEAR MDB2 or straight go ahead with MDB2? ================= Any recommendation appriciated.
