I'm still looking into both possibilities either MySQLi or PDO and the idea of creating a class myself is just over my head at this point. When I managed to find some home grown classes for either - often the comments from other users would point to bugs/issues with the code so they didn't seem like good starting points.... This is why I imagine that any recommendations of both MySQLi or PDO classes from this good group would be a better starting point.
