Anyone got a copy of this tar file out there since his url no longer works (at least for me)?

Thanks,
Tenkawa

It was pointed out to me this is a better way to do it.
Thanks

if ($pun_user['g_read_board'] == '0' || $pun_user['is_guest'])
        message($lang_common['No view']);

I got 1.2.9 to work by changing in userlist.php

if ($pun_user['g_read_board'] == '0')
    message($lang_common['No view']);

to

if ($pun_user['g_title'] == 'Guest')
    message($lang_common['No view']);

PDO provides a data-access abstraction layer, which means that, regardless of which database you're using, you use the same functions to issue queries and fetch data. PDO does not provide a database  abstraction; it doesn't rewrite SQL or emulate missing features. You should use a full-blown abstraction layer if you need that facility.

PDO wouldn't add a lot to PunBB since PunBB already has an abstraction layer. The only advantage, except current support for sqlite3, would be that the functions used in the abstraction layer would be the same, but that doesn't help at all. The only potential use for PDO in PunBB would be prepared statements/parameters, but that's not something you do in an afternoon. To top things off, the support for PDO among hosting companies is minimal at best. We can expect that to be true for some time.

Unfortunately I have to agree on hosting support for PDO. It has been very minimal that I've seen out there at best.

No. It is "integrated" with 5.1, with 5.0 it is a module from http://pecl.php.net
Direct link is : http://pecl.php.net/package-search.php? … mit=Search

This feature request would give the option to use the PDO extensions in php and also allow usage of sqlite v3.
