hi to everybody, I use Oracle 10g Express and I'm dealing with the connection to the database in php through the use of pear. In order to connect to the database I use the function DB::connect() provided by the pear package, but google told me that the connection is allowed only up to oracle version 9. With the oci_connect() function always goes right, so I suspect there's something wrong in pear. Someone else has the same experience? Thanks in advance, Simone Saravalli -- //www.freelists.org/webpage/oracle-l
