It's a PHP module. It's referred to as PDO - PHP Data Objects.
http://www.php.net/manual/en/book.pdo.php

It supports almost all major database types, so it's extensible if you ever decide to move, and all goes through SQL-style syntax.

thanks

UMayBleedIt does use MySQL, but that is a database, MySQLi is not a database, it is an extension to PHP


Just FYI, MySQLi may not be a database per se but it is part of MySQL - it's a new set of APIs that are safer to use, but your SQL server has to expose them (it's not just a PHP thing). It's basically MySQL 2.0. I would recommend you use PDO, though, as it's essentially the most accessible database system to use.

Pdo? can i have the name of it not the abbreviation of it? and i never heard of it

First off, The website is programmed in PHP, so yes that would be a part of it. It does use MySQL, but that is a database, MySQLi is not a database, it is an extension to PHP. CSS and Css3 is just styling formatting for websites.

Couldn't tell you have the leveling thing is though.

im just wondering how that works and i know its php and read this

The MySQLi Extension (MySQL Improved) is a relational database driver used in the PHP programming language to provide an interface with MySQL databases.
MySQLi is an improved version of the older PHP MySQL driver, offering various benefits.[1]
The developers of the PHP programming language recommend using MySQLi when dealing with MySQL server versions 4.1.3 and newer (takes advantage of new functionality).[1] and i got this from wikipedia
