xfedex, yes you can connect to a remote Oracle DB, I'm doing for an app I'm trying to write. You have to configure php with the oracle version you have, more than likely with the --with-oci8=/u1/oracle/product/10g line, of course your oracle location will differ. I chose to use the PEAR::DB to do my oracle stuff instead of the oci calls. This made it simple, and easy to read for me as I'm still learning. The code looks cleaner also. xfedex (xfedex@xxxxxxxxx) wrote: > > Hi, > > Can PHP connect to a remote Oracle db? > Because all oracle connecting functions only require 'user' and 'pass' > > http://us3.php.net/manual/en/function.oci-connect.php > http://us3.php.net/manual/en/function.ora-plogon.php > > Thanks, > Regards, > pancarne. > > -- > PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) > To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php > > -- "Computers are like air conditioners - they stop working properly when you open Windows" -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
