Re: [PHP-DB] MySQL performance and crash
MySQL is stable enough. May be it'll be better to rewrite your code or to add some indexes to Users? I can help you with ideas of refactoring.

Re: [PHP-DB] which DB to use?
I'd say never be subjective n say "i'm not a fan of MS". Choose what works the best for you. Check ur budget... ur time ur method of programming and ur DB knowlede. And ofcorse the size of your project. For website(not web applications) i'd prefer mySQL For webapps I'd preffer MSSQL. For intranet use I'd preffer Oracle.

[PHP-DB] Passing url parameters
I swear this is not a repeat of earlier post :) When passing variables via URL, my understanding is that the value passed is the database column name. What I don't understand is the name / label part. It seems like the only name I can use is the same name as the value. i.e. Database column: Myfield Value: _get["Myfield"] Name: Myfield (this is the one I want to change, so my database column is not identified in the url) This make sense ?

Instead of using nl2br you could just use
$foo=preg_replace("/(\r\n)+/","",$foo).

Re: [PHP-DB] MySQL performance and crash
And to add further, please check the following two setting in your PHP / MySQL configuration. 1. Default timeout MySQL has a default timeout of a session set to 8 hrs. You may want to reduce it to say 5 min 2. Persistent connection Check whether you are using the persistent connection in PHP, while connecting to MySQL (Although the advantages and disadvantages of Persistent connections are still not clear, but it does help in certain situation) Do No 2 only as a test, because it may worsen the situation, if your MySQL setting are not properly set.

I have a question along this line... is it possible to have PHP do
more than one str_replace at the same time? or would I need to pass
through each time seperately? I.e I wasn to check for Line returns and
change it to , i want to replace "[c]" with a special formating
tag etc...?
