It appears to be an article for perl programmers not familiar with MySQL, warning them of MySQL quirks they should be aware of. If you write a perl script with DBD::MySQL and try one of the examples he gave, and check your return status to see if the statement succeeded, does it appear to have succeeded? If so, unless you're very familiar with MySQL specifically, you probably wouldn't think to look for warnings, and parse them, just to make sure that the statement that succeeded actually did what it was supposed to do. Definitely a potential pitfall that someone writing perl scripts for MySQL needs to be aware of and know how to work around. -- Cos
