We're considering switching to InnoDB tables for a couple of tables in
our database where we need transactions. We're complete newbies with
reference to innodb, although we are seasoned veterans with regards to
MySQL/MyISAM and general concepts.

We have come up with a couple questions that we haven't been able to
find answers on elsewhere. If the answers are available online
somewhere, please let me know.

1) can you join a MyISAM table to an innodb table in a select?

2) Under 'Restrictions...' in the manual, it says:
When you restart the MySQL server, InnoDB may reuse an old value for an
AUTO_INCREMENT column.
Under what circumstances does this occur?

3) Are there any replication issues?

4) Any issues regarding a mixed MyISAM/InnoDB environment that we should
worry about?

5) Anyone who has done this in the past -- how much of a pain was it?

Thanks
