Re: PEAR::DB == || != DBA

I was looking for the string escape with in the actual mysql file and I totally missed methods in the common classes. Thanks for the heads up. And thanks for the heads up about the date, it hadn't occurred to me that I was not abstracting that part of the application and it really should be. Thanks for everyone's input.
