You could do something like that using flat files -- but getting
relational elements between tables (files) to work would likely be a
challenge -- and it likely wouldn't scale so well (though that probably
isn't an issue for the purposes you're stating.
You might look into Sqlite. It's bundled with PHP5, has good PHP4
support, and writes flat files. It can be treated as a regular DB with
SQL syntax
