By using TUDBC (http://www.tudbc.org), you can call stored procedureseasily. Better yet, it works on any flavors of PHP (original,Phalanger, or Quercus). Even better, you would use the same style ofcoding for any DBMSes or programming languages. Have fun! For an example in MySQL (just change the connection string for other DBMSes), TestSumOut(IN x int, IN y int, OUT total int) The PHP codes (using EZ Style) are $vault = new TUDBCConnectionVaultSingle("tudbc:mysqli://localhost//tudbcguest,helloworld/tudbcdemo");$conn = $vault->getConnection();$ezsql = $conn->getSQL_EZ( "call TestSumOut(<*<?int:x>*>, <*<?int:y>*>, <*<??int:total>*>)", "TestSumOutSprocSQL");$ezsql->getStatement()->parameterSetValues($x, $y);$result = $ezsql->getStatement()->executeUpdate();$total = $ezsql->getStatement()->sprocGetOutputParameter(2)->getInt();$ezsql->close();$conn->close();$vault->close(); You will find other examples in the demo codes on the website. TUDBC Below is the declaration of the example stored procedure DELIMITER $$DROP PROCEDURE IF EXISTS TestSumOut` $$CREATE PROCEDURE `TestSumOut`(x int, y int, OUT total int )BEGIN set total = x + y;END $$DELIMITER; On 9/19/08, "Stanisław T.
