Suggestion

[KBischof]

Ivan, thanks for adding my suggested changes yesterday!

Sorry this is not an issue, but I wanted to make another suggestion for the project's roadmap and figured this was the best way to make this suggestion. I think the project's database calls should be using PDO instead of mysql_query calls. The main reason is that the mysql_ library has been obsolete for six years and less secure than PDO. This article inspired me to begin programming all my latest projects in PDO, you might be interested: http://webdevrefinery.com/forums/topic/1272-your-mysql-code-sucks

I was able to convert the database file to use PDO but got hung up with how it interacts with the session file. I would be willing to send you my converted database.php file if you are interested in pursing this..

Thanks again!
