That's actually pretty cool, from a tech standpoint, but why not access the MS-SQL database directly? From Windows it's easy, you just need the SQL .dll's installed on the server, and from Linux/Unix you can build PHP with FreeTDS support (--with-sybase=/usr/local/freetds). There is an article detailing the second approach here: http://www.phpbuilder.com/columns/alberto20000919.php3 It's rather old, but still has useful information. My company is using PHP on Linux and accessing a MS SQL 7 server for all it's data. We've had it in production for nearly a year now and it's worked nearly flawlessly.
