You can use: - txtSQL http://txtsql.sourceforge.net/ Is not provided in php, you have to install it to the folder were you have your scripts or reachable by it. The sintax is not exactly as sql but is similar, the documentation included seems to be very good. I dont know if it does everything you need but it appears to have an fairly complete list of features avaliable the main drawback is compatibility (the sql instructions are not sql standard) and speed (its slower, but probably you wont even notice it).

The libmysqld is meant to be used as a database server embeded into application, not a replace or a lighter version of a database server, it can´t be used with php to provide a web page to the internet in the way

i

tink you want. The way of using libmysql is for what i read the same way you would use

a

mysql database. It could be used with php to create a dinamic webpage into a cdrom with

a

read-noly database. If you dont want to pay the extra $$$ you could use plain text files, or

use

a driver to treat text-files as databases, you can execute sql

instructions

as if you were using a database but the results asre saved/fetched from

a

textfile, is a slower but cheaper solution.

Ricardo -- Thanks or you reply. Unfortunitly the question of hostinga package is out of my hands. If the PHP provides SQL ->text file pleae point me to the man page? Is it sometihng like SQLcsv ?
