*sigh*
  1. With SQL and HTML
  2. Biometrics, though nametags help, if you can convince them to wear them
  3. Following the XHTML specification
  4. Figure out what you need to change, then ask the database to change it
  5. Preface all of your SQL with "*- mother may i -*"
Not really helpful? That's okay. You didn't say what problem you were trying to solve.

The moral of the story: there is more than one way to do things because there is more than one thing to do. You either live with that ambiguity, or you spend the rest of your life trying to fit every problem to your ONE BEST solution.

Update: ... and that's why exploring other languages, paradigms (functional, imperative), and even design techniques (UML, design patterns, use cases) is important.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post, it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":


  • Posts are HTML formatted. Put <p> </p> tags around your paragraphs. Put <code> </code> tags around your code and data!
  • Titles consisting of a single word are discouraged, and in most cases are disallowed outright.
  • Read Where should I post X? if you're not absolutely sure you're posting in the right place.
  • Please read these before you post! —
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags:
    a, abbr, b, big, blockquote, br, caption, center, col, colgroup, dd, del, details, div, dl, dt, em, font, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, hr, i, ins, li, ol, p, pre, readmore, small, span, spoiler, strike, strong, sub, summary, sup, table, tbody, td, tfoot, th, thead, tr, tt, u, ul, wbr
  • You may need to use entities for some characters, as follows. (Exception: Within code tags, you can put the characters literally.)
            For:     Use:
    & &amp;
    < &lt;
    > &gt;
    [ &#91;
    ] &#93;
