You are not wrong, not at all. However, PHP works with ODBC and Oracle can be user over ODBC too. The problem is that doing all this extra work, installing ODBC libraries, PHP, configuring Apache, etc. might be a little overkill compared to what one can do with the Oracle client libs. Therefore, you are right at this point. -- Giorgos Keramidas, "What we have to learn to do, we learn by doing."
