RE: InnoDB frightens me...

[Steve Rapaport]

I sure would, thanks Monty and Tobias.
In particular some sample update/insert/delete db code for MyISAM

transactions, just trying to take advantage of row-locking.)
Assuming something changes, of course.

The other thing is a page on replication issues.
