RE: [PHP-PEAR] Installing PEAR

I've just started switching to PEAR's DB layer and noticed that if you use something like: $db = DB::connect( "mysql://$dbuser:$dbpass@$dbhost/$dbname" ); then this will fail when $dbpass contains an "@" character, as it does in one case for me. I assume it will also fail if there is a ":" or "@" in the user or pass. Is there a way around this? -- Colin Viebrock Co-Founder, easyDNS Technologies http://www.easyDNS.com/
