     * how the db saves the data, and whatever else.
     * You can also set indexes which depend on 2 columns, simply pass the parameters like
     * 'table1.id,table2.id' it will be used as a string for indexing the result
     * and the index will be built using the 2 values given, so a possible
     * index might be '1,2' or '2108,29389' this way you can access data which
     * have 2 primary keys. Be sure to remember that the index is a string!
