Currently, I'm trying to build an eccommerce site which is uploaded to my paid webhost. On this webhost, the Microsoft SQL Server 7.0 db is stored on the same machine (NT 4 System), and what I want to do is basically make PHP connect to the db and display some results from a table.
BUT, THIS WEBHOST DISALLOWS DIRECT CONNECTIONS TO THE DB, THEY REQUIRE ME TO GO THROUGH THE SYSTEM DSN THEY HAVE SETUP FOR ME. So how would I make a connection to the System DSN and get results from a MSSQL DB? Is there documentation on how it all works?
Thanks in advance.
