Hi. Firstly I am a member of long standing so I am now at the opposite end of the age scale to most of you - I only started programming in my middle fifties! - so I may be way out on this suggestion.
I have been searching to find a good tutorial to change from MySql to MySqli.
Most of what I find on the net seems to focus on the actual connection.
Making the change to the connection is easy - but from there on everything seems to go haywire.
My site make use of the "get_include_contents(X)" style instead of require(X) that was covered in the php Manual.
Now this does not seem to work (for me anyway).
I favour the procedural style, mostly as I believe I can avoid learning the OOP method (too old to get my head around it now) and that may be the problem.
However, there may perhaps be many others who are starting to face the necessity of changing to MySqli fairly soon - and your expertise will be welcomed I'm sure.
I certainly have benefited from your collective input over the years - for which I give you all my heartfelt thanks.
Thank you for reading this suggestion.
