Problem solved! Thanks to everyone who helped out (and to our system DBA for reminding me that an Oracle function is just a type of stored procedure). For what it's worth, here is the code that I wound up using (sensitive company information xxxx'ed out, of course): <?php // Establish Oracle connection putenv("ORACLE_SID=xxxx"); putenv("ORACLE_HOME=xxxx"); $db = ocilogon("xxxx","xxxx","xxxx"); if(!$db) die("Database connection failed."); // Execute stored procedure $functionCall = "begin :result := hubins_func('Richard','Y');end;"; $parsedFunctionCall=ociparse($db,$functionCall); ocibindbyname($parsedFunctionCall,":result",$result,10); if(!ociexecute($parsedFunctionCall)) die ("Stored Procedure execution failed."); print("Value of primary key: $result"); // End Oracle connection ocilogoff($db); ?> The value of $result is the primary key which is associated with the value inserted into the database with the hubins_func stored proc.
