Links SQL and mSQL
Hi i want to know if Links SQL is compatible with mSQL database.
here is what my future host offers.

MySQL Database Support
mSQL (or mini sql) from Hughes Technologies and mySQL are fast unix databases that supports a simpler version of the standard SQL language. HostPro offers you your very own databases in which you can create as many tables as you wish.

At last report, No.

mSQL doesn't support enough features to run links. "m" -> "mini"

Hi,

No it doesn't, and I don't think it ever will. mSQL does not support enough features to make it worthwhile to support. Most ISP's have moved to MySQL instead.

Cheers,

Alex

HostPro also offers mySQL databases (I'm using it!) plus you will find practically all scripts will use mySQL over mSQL for the reasons outlined ensuring you have greater options for future projects you might need.

Be safe and stick with mySQL.
