XML into database

Hi,

I like to save www-forms into one text-field in database by using XML.

Example:

<user> <firstname>Bill</firstname> <lastname>Gates</lastname> .... </user>

And not to make 100*n fields into table.

You do realize that is really quite limiting? For example you cannot
efficiently pick the first 10 users ordered by last name, select those
users with property x and so on. You will also have to provide
accessors for all the attributes, although I imagine it would not be
hard to generate those at run time (similar to what ActiveRecord does).
