If something broke (shouldn't, tested as far as I could) I'll fix it. Some questions which came up my mind: .) Why do have php extension names and pear::db backends different names? E.g. 'informix' => 'ifx' ? .) What do you think about a static method of DB which returns an array of all supported db extension and a function which returns only currently installed extensions ? array DB::supported_extensions(); Either return a fixed array which has to be maintained or make it magic to scan through DB/ and array DB::installed_extensions(); Which also tries to load missing compiled-in extensions so the result is accurat. - Markus -- Markus Fischer, http://guru.josefine.at/~mfischer/ EMail: mfischer@guru.josefine.at PGP Public Key: http://guru.josefine.at/~mfischer/C2272BD0.asc PGP Fingerprint: D3B0 DD4F E12B F911 3CE1 C2B5 D674 B445 C227 2BD0 -All your scripts are belong to Zend-
