Hi,

I'm just wondering from those who have used PHP and MySQL in production environments, which DB access method they used and why. Is one preferred over the other?

The book (Web Database Applications with PHP and MySQL, O'Reilly) I'm following seems to be using MySQL over the PEAR DB extension for the most part but they occassionally switch in their examples.
