Hi,
Looking for advice on integrating database applications.

We are building a web app in php.  Generally I use MySQL for everything.
But this app needs to integrate with, or at least exchange data with an
accounting package running PervasiveSQL db.

I think I can access Pervasive with php's built-in ODBC functionality.

Questions:

1.  Does anyone know if both ODBC connections and mysql connections can
be maintained in the same script? (Be polite if you feel this is
strictly a PHP question!)

2. I am currently torn between two approaches:
        a) build the web app with mysql and have the headache of
synchronization with Pervasive(any good docs on that would be
appreciated!)

        OR

        b) build the app with Pervasive and have the security issues of
a web app directly accessing the internal db

Any advice greatly appreciated!
