-===== Migrating To The mysqli driver =====
-If you are still using the //**mysql**// or//**mysqlt**// drivers you should be planning on migrating to the mysqli driver. Support for both drivers is built into PHP up to version PHP 5.4. From an ADOdb standpoint, it is simply a case of switching from
-  $db = newAdoConnection('mysql')
-to
-  $db = newAdoConnection('mysqli')
