Alright so I'm coding my first script with MySQL and im kinda confused already.

I'm not sure if i need to state what type of Database the script will be using?

Take vB for example:
do i need to include that in my script even tho i plan to only support MySQL?

Thanks in advance.

Best Regards,
Randy

no you don't have to, just need to use the mysql or mysqli functions.

I haven't used vB but I am guessing that is used for interoperability independent of type of database.

I'm guessing vB has some form of DB Abstraction Layer for cross platform compatibility.

Just using the mysql_* functions for your app will be just fine.
