Re: MYSQL WTF

Mr. Efficacious, You are over-reacting. The MySQLi API is nearly identical to the MySQL functions, but is up-to-date. You can move to the procedural MySQLi with almost *NO* effort at all. Even with thousands of lines of code, you should be able to update everything in less than one day.
