btherl Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 If Berkeley DB is available you can use that. You can also store the data in text files if all else fails.. but how you structure those depends very much on what data you need to store, and how you want to access it. Berkeley db info here: http://sg.php.net/manual/en/ref.dba.php Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/61497-how-to-build-a-site-without-mysql/#findComment-306118 Share on other sites More sharing options...

trq Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 What version of php? php5 comes standard with sqlite, a very efficient very light weight sql database. I have been using sqlite in favour of mysql for a number of years.
