Ohh, I just have to tell you guys! I got a MySQL dump some days ago, and I just can't believe how MySQL works. The table had a horrible syntax, something like an enum(val1, val2) data type (something totally non-sql). But that wasn't what really freaked me up. The worst was when I say an INSERT (in the dump file) that had as value for the field that had that enum() data type an empty string! Now, which are the posible values of that field? For what I say, '' isn't a valid value for a field like that, but what can I say, anyway, that's not an SQL data type.
