I am new to PHP and am trying to learn how it works.
We have a PHP program that is using MySQL. We are wanting to use our Oracle
database instead. The Oracle database is on a different server that our PHP
program. Does any one know how I can change connections from MySQL to
Oracle?
We have this line in our dba.php.......
$tli_connection = dbconnect($dsn, $user, $pass);
In our config.php we have the following that defines the above............
$dsn = "some.where.com"; // MySQL hostname
(something@somewhere.someextension)
$user = "MYSQL USER NAME GOES HERE"; // Username with sufficient
rights to the DB - need update, select, delete, insert only
$pass = "MYSQL PASSWORD FOR ABOVE USER"; // Password for the above
user

The first place is to look in the manual http://www.php.net/oracle
