Dear Webmasters, I’d like to have corrected some issues I see with the description and examples of the PDOStatement->execute() manual entry. in the description part, it should also list the PDOStatement->bindValue() method. in the 1st amd 4th example the usage of PDOStatement->bindParam() IMO does not fits its intention (bind a variable to a placeholder). I’d use PDOStatement->bindValue() for the code in the examples (passing a value once, why should I bind the variable then?). PDOStatement->bindParam() should be used when you either use PDO::PARAM_INPUT_OUTPUT or you do multiple executions with different values (which isn’t even mentioned in the PDOStatement->bindParam() manual entry). cheers, Dormilich
