Our documentation should be updated in this regard.

Let's pop this onto the sqlsrv radar: do you guys have any thoughts on this (or documentation we can use, or at least link to)? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2013-10-02 15:23:07] admin at jaypoc dot com Description: ------------ There's no information/reference for developers who need PHP/MS SQL sites to function on both Linux/OSX based servers as well as Windows/IIS servers. Refernce to cross platform DB interfaces or compatible modules would be helpful. --- From manual page: http://www.php.net/intro.mssql --- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=65813&edit=1
