-PHP's database access functions are not standardized.
-Every database extension uses a different and incompatibile API.
-This creates a need for a database class library to hide the differences
-between the different databases (encapsulate the differences) so we can
-easily switch databases.
-
ADODB stands for Active Data Objects Data Base.
-ADODB currently supports: MySQL, PostgreSQL, Interbase, Oracle, MS SQL 7,
-Foxpro, Access, ADO, Sybase and generic ODBC.
-The Sybase and PostgreSQL drivers are community contributions.
-The developers of ABODB hope more people will contribute drivers to support
-more databases.
+ADODB currently supports:
+ MySQL, PostgreSQL, Interbase, Oracle, MS SQL 7
+ Foxpro, Access, ADO, Sybase and generic ODBC.
+
+Unique Features of ADODB:
+
+* Easy for Windows programmers to adapt to because many of the conventions
+ are similar to Microsoft's ADO.
+
+* Unlike other PHP database classes which focus only on select statements
+ ADODB provides support code to handle inserts and updates which can be
+ adapted to multiple databases quickly. Methods are provided for date
+ handling, string concatenation and string quoting characters for
+ differing databases.
-Feature requests and bug reports can be emailed to jlim@natsoft.com.my or
-posted to http://php.weblogs.com/discuss/msgReader$96.
+* A metatype system is built in so that types such as CHAR, TEXT and STRING
+ are equivalent in different databases.
+
+* Easy to port because all the database dependant code are stored in stub
+ functions. You do not need to port the core logic of the classes.
+
+* PHP4 session support. You can store your session information using ADODB
+ for true portability and scalability. See adodb-session.php for more
+ information.
