RE: [PHP-DB] Can PHP read View in stead of Table?

Peter. It is not a bug in OpenLink's driver but in PHP - odbc_connect is setting a cursor by default when you connect. This is usually fine, but a cursor needs a primary key. If no primary key exists, there will be a problem. This of course will always be a problem with views, as running a cursor against a view makes very little sense. There is a workaround to prevent odbc_connect from automatically selecting a cursor type when connecting - edit php_odbc.h and comment out: #define HAVE_SQL_EXTENDED_FETCH 1 and recompile your php/apache setup. Hope this helps!
