No support for placeholders in database access

It has about as much support for placeholders as perl does natively. But if you're using the PEAR DB class then you can use placeholders as you would with perl's DBI.

While I'm all for pointing out PHP's flaws as a language (which I am acutely aware of having used it extensively for 2 years) I'm just as wary as any language advocate about spreading false information.
