RE: [PHP-DB] Various newbie questions

Thanks for that info - It all looks pretty clear except for db2 - That isn't mentioned specifically on the site below. I must admit to being slighty confused about unified odbc support - can anyone explain what happens to standard odbc support if support for db2 is compiled in - after all they use the same command set (odbc_etc...).
