Documentation?

How about some documentation or examples to show how to use the features in this? The 'rules' interface is hardly intuitive....

PEAR vs mySQL

I've read all the code and am preparing to implement. However one caveat to myself: Should I continue as my backend is mySQL? I'm thinking that I can re-write to suit my needs but am unsure of the modularity of all the dependent code/libraries/user class, etc...
Any response welcome.
Best regards,

Example

Could anybody give an example of the html file .... makes live a bit easier for me.
Thanks

script demo

Martin,
You write great tutorials and scripts, it would be nice to have a demo, when possible.

I appreciate the script demo, but do you have an example of how to build a select box? Thanks
