RE: [PHP-DB] how to connect to dbase

I can't believe this, my problem doesn't attract any attention. But I am quite sure that everybody else besides me has more experience than me in this specific field. Anyone pl, is my question absurd or just impossible. -----Original Message----- From: Swapan Mazumdar [mailto:swapan@dataworld.co.za] Sent: 15 October 2004 09:30 AM To: php-db@lists.php.net Subject: [PHP-DB] how to connect to dbase Importance: High Hi All, I am quite new to php. I have a requirement to query dbase file to implement searching on table columns. Now I am following a basic approach using dbase_get_record_with_names($fileHandler, $iterationIndex). This seems to be a rudimentary approach and has performance bottleneck. For the purpose of paging this is a big stopper. I request php guys to show me how to use Connection to fire a query. I am afraid I can't use system dsn since the underline dbase file could be dynamic. Pl. suggest me how to use direct connection through url or file dsn. This is in context to web apps development.
