4.1.2 seems to provide the correct output from the page.
current cvs version seems to corrupt output.

Please realize that while database A may support functionality MNOP,
ODBC functionality is NOT assured.  

To answer the question, no I do not use an MS database.  My testing
comes from using iODBC and unixODBC ODBC drivers, and Virtuoso and
PostgreSQL-ODBC for functionality.

do you use a mssql database? then you can create the table with the
mssql enterprise manager, or a can open you a mssql test access on my
server,

Unfortunately I cannot test this.  My local database dies upon trying
to create a table with type NTEXT via ODBC.

No, I cannot change the table definitions, because they are parts of an
existing application. I was very happy to find out the "SET TEXTSIZE"
trick, do get access to the NTEXT columns, without that PHP was and is
still crashing. 
But something must have changed from PHP version 4.1.1 to 4.2.1, that
this is not working any more.

Reminds me a littlebit on that error I had with an WinXP Apache 1.3.19
installation, where I got simmilar code garbage in html results, I
found a patch for apache to fix that, maybe that helps

Seeing your code my initial reaction is... NTEXT is not a valid ODBC
type.  At least not in ODBC v2 which what PHP is using (it is valid in
OBDC 3.5/3.7).  

Any chance you can use VARCHAR, which is a valid ODBC type?
