Alas the environment of scripts cgi is very limited. To be able to use INFORMIX nevertheless, I supplemented the file php.ini by adding a parameter 'INFORMIX.default_server' then I modified the file ifx.ec in order to read this parameter and to place it in the environment Before calling upon 'ifx_connect'. Is it possible to register my modifiaction in a permanent way in PHP? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=8784&edit=1
