I'm not sure why anyone would say that faster to develop ? nope - I find postgresql quicker to develop with, I can use triggers to cut out a whole heap of extra php code. MYsql lacks subselects which forces you to do extra code, it lacks true foreign keys which means you need to add extra code to check data integrity. People use MYSql because it's so widely available, just like people use Windows. > > /* Chris Lambert, CTO - chris@whitecrown.net > WhiteCrown Networks - More Than White Hats > Web Application Security - www.whitecrown.net > */ > > | > |
