Use the SQLite3 object-oriented library: http://php.net/manual/en/book.sqlite3.php The library is pre-installed with most Apache installations and I'm very happy with it. It has the advantage that it is extremely 'thin': apart from presenting SQLite's C API as if it's Object-Oriented the calls are as simple as possible. So if you need to understand what something does the documentation for SQLite3 will usually tell you everything you need to know. You should make your database files (and the directory which they're in) writable by your file server app (probably Apache). And you should be aware that if two web pages try to access the same database at the same time the access will come from two processes, so you need to think of your apps as doing multi-process access. But if you write your code properly this won't be a problem. There are arguments for using ODBC drivers. Most of them are based around the idea that you might want to change to another SQL engine at some point, and that ODBC is standard across different engines. But I've found that you need to make so many other changes to do with access/passwords/dialects that you have to change things anyway.

Re: [sqlite] PHP ODBC Question
I use the sqlite 3 PDO driver that comes with PHP. An example:
exec('CREATE TABLE example (a INTEGER, b INTEGER)');
$statement = $handle->prepare('INSERT INTO example VALUES (?, ?)');
$statement->execute(array(1, 1));
$statement->execute(array(2, 2));
$statement->execute(array(3, 3));
$statement = $handle->prepare('SELECT a, b FROM example WHERE a > ?');
$statement->execute(array(1));
$results = $statement->fetchAll(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC);
var_dump($results);
?>

All, Any suggestions out there on what ODBC driver to use with PHP, or any other manner to connect to a SQLite database via PHP?
