No, actually you need to use the DB API as it was intended to be used. You think Booleans' invert behaviour is strange, you think that cgi.escape is broken, and you think Python needs a SQLquote function. It might be a good idea to lurk for a bit longer and get more idea of how Python is used in practice before starting to suggest spurious improvements. regards Steve -- Steve Holden +44 150 684 7255 +1 800 494 3119 Holden Web LLC/Ltd http://www.holdenweb.com Skype: holdenweb http://holdenweb.blogspot.com Recent Ramblings http://del.icio.us/steve.holden -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
