note 116802 added to function.odbc-connect

Following simonr at no2sp at m dot cogapp dot com contribution (thank you), I tried to connect to a local MS SQL Server 2014 Express database by creating a DSN-less connection using ODBC. It worked, here's the code. <?php // Replace the value of these variables with your own data $user = 'username'; $pass = 'password'; $server = 'serverName\instanceName'; $database = 'database'; // No changes needed from now on $connection_string = "DRIVER={SQL Server};SERVER=$server;DATABASE=$database"; $conn = odbc_connect($connection_string,$user,$pass); if ($conn) { echo "Connection established."; } else{ die("Connection could not be established."); } ?> ---- Server IP: 72.52.91.14 Probable Submitter: 85.242.85.49 ---- Manual Page -- http://php.net/manual/en/function.odbc-connect.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/116802 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/116802/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/116802/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/116802/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/116802/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/116802/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/116802/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/116802 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/116802 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
