Bryce910 Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 I am curious if it is true that mysql_ extension is being depreciated in the next upcoming versions of php? Has anyone heard about if that is actually going to happen? Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/261599-mysql_/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
silkfire Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 No matter what happens, it's never too late to switch to PDO. Try it, you won't go back Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/261599-mysql_/#findComment-1340517 Share on other sites More sharing options...
xyph Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 It's true. They're moving on to the mysqli_ extension, or PDO The MySQL extension hasn't been bundled with PHP since PHP5 Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/261599-mysql_/#findComment-1340518 Share on other sites More sharing options...
scootstah Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 There is literally zero reason to not be using either mysqli or PDO. If you're still using mysql you are doing it wrong.

Bryce910 Posted April 26, 2012 Author Share Posted April 26, 2012 okay sounds like I will start using PDO. I have used a little of it but I just already knew mysql_ so I went back to it. I will make sure I use PDO for now on. Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/261599-mysql_/#findComment-1340565 Share on other sites More sharing options...
