MSSQL and ODBC Connections with PHP on Windows

Hi,

   I am a newbie using the combination of PHP and MSSQL together.
   Can anyone tell me which method it might be better as far as using PHP on Windows with MSSQL database on a single machine? (The PHP and MSSQL database are not set up remotely on two different servers.

    I have set up both, and my ODBC Driver does work when I run it from the test without using PHP, and yet when I put it in PHP, my entire screen goes blank.


$dsn="MSSQL";
$username="user";
$password="password";

$sqlconnect=odbc_connect($dsn,$username,$password);
$sqlquery="SELECT title FROM books";
$process=odbc_exec($sqlconnect, $sqlquery);

while(odbc_fetch_row($process)){
$Name = odbc_result($process,"Name");
echo "$Name<br>"; }
odbc_close($sqlconnect);


The similar thing happens when I use the code by using a slight modification from http://us3.php.net/manual/en/function.mssql-connect.php.

Can anyone please provide me some tips and solutions on what additional modules or set up I need to get this to work? I was told that if I use Windows, I may not have to use FreeTDS.

Thanks in advance.
