I'm sorry, I didn't look at this very closely...  just looked at the error
and assumed....

It looks like your problem is actually your variable that you are passing
into the pg_connect.  When you are setting up your connection string,
$con_string should be $this->con_string.

It's giving you this error because it's not getting any parameters in
pg_connect.

: : Hi,
: : I try to connect to a PostgreSQL database from my php script, and get
the

: :
: : Warning: Unable to connect to PostgreSQL server: FATAL 1: Database
