Hi Tony,

There are a few ways to do this - what in particular are you looking to do?

In the meantime, you could take inspiration from github. For instance this person has created a repo for bootstrapped slim framework that uses PDO and MVC. It looks like they've created a 'Model' and thrown all the query/PDO related things into that class. Probably a good place to start :)

Thanks Tom,

Just realized I don't even need the PDO dependency. Got it working with PDO working with slim as it now comes standard with PHP. I'm running v5.5.12.

However, i tried this version previous https://github.com/FaaPz/Slim-PDO but couldn't get it to work so gave up. Thanks for your link.
