RE: [PHP] Array into database
Depends on the average size of data that you're working with. You have to count how many bytes each array take up. I think the sizeof function will do this for you. -Ed -Original Message- And how should I store a serialized variable in my database? As String or as Blob?

Re: [PHP] Array into database
So this would handle 2-demensional arrays too? So, if I have $array = ( "foo" => "bar", "wom" => "bat" ); it would work? And darn, that I didn't come up with this (I'm familliar with Java, and they use Serializable) ...
