Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-06-03 21:21:57] donnyk at gmail dot com This bug still exists in 5.2.6, code to reproduce remains the same. mssql_select_db('mysilly-database'); will result in an error claiming that mysilly does not exist within sysdatabases (a mssql system table). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-11-30 17:40:53] byoung at bigbluehat dot com 2007 - PHP 5.2.3 still have this issue. Connection to MSSQL databases with dash continues to fail (using FreeTDS 0.63). Databases without dashes in the name connect without error. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-10-10 18:00:36] chris at sugarcrm dot com 2006 - PHP 4.4.2/4 and PHP 5.1.2/4 still have this issue. The same code use-case is valid: try to connect to a MSSql database with dashes in the name, and the connection will fail. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-05-09 07:35:01] sniper@php.net No feedback was provided.
