 * Heya.
    I’m in a similar situation, however I grabbed that ADODB php extension
   and edited the same hill out of the existing WordPress code. I have had to kludge
   the code in a couple of places (eg. if oc8i use Max() instead of Greater() ),
   and all of the mysql limit code had to be replaced with ADODB style SelectLimit
   calls… but it seems to be going pretty darn well. I have not created an Install
   script for Oracle, but I have the source code and my database create script (
   which you’ll have to hand edit to suit your own data, I’m sure most can manage
   it though). I’m very interested in feedback/ comments (and I’d love to see WordPress
   adopt the ADODB db parse-wassit so I don’t have to re-hack everything for each
   version increment) Links: Oracle create tables/ triggers/ etc. [http://lapse.nerdvana.org.au/downloads/wp_generate.txt](http://lapse.nerdvana.org.au/downloads/wp_generate.txt)
   Oracle database populate [http://lapse.nerdvana.org.au/downloads/wp_insert.sql](http://lapse.nerdvana.org.au/downloads/wp_insert.sql)[
   remember to edit this to have your data, or edit after it’s been inserted] ADODB
