I almost went as far as creating a whole document dedicated to the installation of PDO, but wasn't sure where it would go. [1] http://livedocs.zirzow.dyndns.org/index.php?l=en&q=ref.pdo [2] http://livedocs.zirzow.dyndns.org/index.php?l=en&q=ref.pdo-sqlite Curt.

Curt, this looks nice. What is the thing you are not sure about?

I was considering making a driver-install.xml page inside pdo that would explain how to install the drivers. Like ordering of the extensions in php.ini, shared vs static installation and also cross reference the pecl.install page. So instead of having a &reftitle.install; in all the driver pages, since most of them will be the same except sqlite, just cover all the procedures in that page. Now that I typed that, a install section per driver sounds like the best solution.

Well, otherwise readers would not find it... Unless this driver-install page is linked from all the install pages.

I prefer a install section per driver. I myelf installed pdo and some drivers yesterday (the first time) with php 5.1.1. for an ISP and I expected the install instructions for the drivers in their corresponding driver-specific page. IMHO, this seems to be the most user friendly solution. Friedhelm
