Guys

One of the things I like about the PHP/Javascript combo is the
similarity of syntax (and things like not declaring vars) so i can
switch easily, I must be getting old because it takes me a while (and 
several coffees to switch between php/js and delphi)

One thing I found out (totally by accident) is that MS SQL TransactSQL 
ignores ";"
