I was emailing back-and-forth with a programmer and he said he would like to use PHPADODB for a website that he MAY design for me.<br /><br />Any idea what that is and does TCH support PHPADODB?<br /><br />thanks.<!--content-->
<a href="http://adodb.sourceforge.net/" target="_blank">ADOdb </a>is a database abstraction library for PHP.<br />I think it is a package you install on your site, but<br />open a help desk ticket to the techs to see if it is supported.<!--content-->

You should have no issue using adodb on our servers. Don't quote me on this but I believe several scripts we provide in Fantastico such as Gallery, use adodb.<!--content-->
ADODB is a very nicely designed database abstraction layer for PHP. It simplifies supporting disparate databases and provides a common featureset for all supported databases.<br /><br />Installation is simple:<br /><br />1. Unzip the adodb.zip file to a directory in your account.<br /><br />2. Within your PHP Project, inlcude the adodb.inc.php file<br /><br />That's it. Nice, simple and easy. Makes it easy to upgrade to when the need arises. It has an excellent track record. I've used it for years and do not recall any exploits or security vulnerabilities for it.<!--content-->
