This 'developer' is feeding you some BS. MySQL handles XML data as well as any other type of data. The functioanlity of a particular database has a lot to do with the programmer who designs the schema. Maybe this 'developer' doesn't know how to design an XML/MySQL application ... but that doesn't mean there is a problem with MySQL.

"the best databases are made with xml, old databases like mysql, oracle and all the others, will not be functionall thanks XML standar". Well, now I´m cofused. Some one can help me with this "is that true", is XML the next generation of creating databases and tables for beast results.
