Heh. The MySQL documentation was pretty funny back when the preferred response to an important feature MySQL didn't have was to claim it wasn't necessary and even a Bad Idea. I remember Sasha flaming me for having the temerity to disagree with experts like Monty who wrote stuff like "There are so many problems with foreign key constraints that we don't know where to start." http://web.archive.org/web/20010608135724/www.mysql.com/documentation/mysql/bychapter/manual_Compatibility.html#Broken_Foreign_KEY /waves to Sasha -Jonathan .===================================. | This has been a P.L.U.G. mailing. | | Don't Fear the Penguin. | | IRC: #utah at irc.freenode.net | `==================================='
