Thanks for your replies.
In my desperation, I declared those environment variables in as many
places as I could think of. The script (Although I know I shouldnt),
php.ini and also the apache httpd.conf file:
SetEnv ORACLE_HOME /opt/oracle/instanceclient
SetEnv DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH /opt/oracle/instanceclient
SetEnv LD_LIBRARY_PATH /opt/oracle/instanceclient
SetEnv ORACLE_BASE /opt/oracle/instanceclient
But given that it works on the command line, but not through the
browser, I think that the environment variables must be set correctly.
Cheers
Mark

I'd guess you probably need this in apache's start up script, not
in php (where that is on a mac setup I have no idea).
You could also try it in your virtual host:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_env.html#setenv
SetEnv LD_LIBRARY_PATH /opt/oracle/instanceclient
I agree that using putenv() for Environment variables in scripts is
bad.
On Mac, I think you need DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH instead of LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
