Why a pure Java database? Pure Java code usually means purely slow. PHP can interface natively with so many different databases, why don't you just use one of them instead of a Java thing? What does that database offer that other databases supported by PHP don't? Regards, Manuel Lemos Web Programming Components using PHP Classes.
