I'm trying to use a stored procedure and "ref cursors". The PHP server has the Oracle 8.x client library and the Oracle server is 7.x. When I try to use the ref cursor I get the infamous "ORA-24370" error. This error goes away when I connect to an Oracle 8 server (and everything else, including the stored procedure, stays the same). Others have reported this error but I have yet to find a work-around (and I can't upgrade the server to Oracle 8.x). I'm wondering if there's a way to use ociNewCollection() and have a stored procedure return an array of records (somehow) and that way do away with the need for "ref cursors", but ociNewCollection() is under-documented to say the least :-( Any tips or comments will be much appreciated. Thanks, -T.
