Hi,<br><br>We are going to build a web site using Drupal. I am new to Drupal CMS. While going through the drupal tables, i found that the 'type' field in 'node_type' table is varchar. I am eager to know - why the type fields are varchars instead of integers.
<br> I would like to know this because varchars are slow in table joins and searching. I believe there is a <br>specific reason in making the type fields - varchars. Please let me know.<br> <br>Thank you in advance,<br>
