Just writing a PHP website and using mySqli for my database connectivity. Really enjoying it as I can use Prepare statements and then do a $result = $stmt->get_result();
which loads results into an associated array. However, thought it best be time to upload a few pages and the DB to hosting site to test speed and such to find that it does not support the $stmt->get_result();
command, having it needing to use the mysqlnd driver which my host does not support.
Looking into this nor does many host providers either. Now when I started the website I looked back at some of my old PHP code and apparently the normal mySql code that I used to use has become obsolete and was told on the internet to use mySQLi instead only to find that support for this is dropping to?! so it would see, so what is the best mySql connectivity to use?
