Hi,

Thanks for that Ralph, and David, it just seemed to me that it would have been the ( one of ) first adapter ( even if it were to be deprecated) to get built, I totally understand what your saying and luckily for me I finally pursuaded our host to enable it on our server ( i know, why wasn't it enabled neway? ) . I know it may just be I have inherited a substandard host but i was just curious to why ZF left it out, now I understand. This is why ZF community is the best, and the best FW by far, and that's not too biased cos I've dabbled with Cake, Symphony , et al.

Thanks.

The mysql extension does not support preparing queries or binding values, it only supports straight pass through of sql and returning a result set.

So in short a) it doesnt support php to database best practices, and b) it is not in active development, only maintenance mode.

Hi, I just have a quick question, Why doesn't ZF have a standard mysql adapter? apart from PDO, mysqli? Would it be easy to modify an existing adapter to get this functionality? I'm on a server that's not got mysqli, or PDO mysql driver.
Thanks.
