I suppose that a lot of people are a bit afraid that the prepare/execute stuff will steal some performance, especially with DBMS that don't support them natively, e.g. MySQL.

Apart from the performance issue, I guess that using the prepare/execute syntax is often just "typing overhead" for people. > Sice the PEAR::DB class supports prepare-execute emulation for dbs not supporting this feature > (right?)... http://cvs.php.net/co.php/pear/DB/doc/STATUS gives you a overview about which features are supported by the different drivers. -- - Martin Martin Jansen http://martinjansen.com/
