PHP5/SQLite 1, Me 0……that is all.

Updated score

Me 3, PHP5/MySQL, 2

I’m creating a shared calendar for the office. Right now everyone writes their time out of the office on a poster-sized notepad hanging by the front desk. I’m working on a web-based one that everyone can view from their desk. I didn’t want to install another database on the server on mess with the one we already have. If I bring that one down it ends up hitting people in the wallet which makes their lives and mine very miserable.

I was trying to use the SQL DB that comes compiled into PHP5. I finally gave up on that and went with MySQL on another box altogether. I’ve been reading MySQL by Paul DuBois anyway so it’s a good learning experience for me.
