Re: [PHP-DEV] DB Abstraction - db_oo - the query builder

As a side note to this, I did another major overhall to my query builder/ simplified db access layer, db_oo - and put up a small amount of documentation, although there is a small amount of mysql dependance in there, it's not impossible to remove... http://www.akbkhome.com/Projects/db_oo%20-%2
