RE: [PHP] Changing databases from MySQL to Oracle

I am new to PHP and am trying to learn how it works.

We have a PHP program that is using MySQL. We are wanting to use our Oracle
database instead. The Oracle database is on a different server that our PHP
program. Does any one know how I can change connections from MySQL to
Oracle?

We have this line in our dba.php... 
  $tli_connection = dbconnect($dsn, $user, $pass);

In our config.php we have the following that defines the above
$dsn = some.where.com;  // MySQL hostname
([EMAIL PROTECTED])
$user = MYSQL USER NAME GOES HERE;  // Username with sufficient
rights to the DB - need update, select, delete, insert only
$pass = MYSQL PASSWORD FOR ABOVE USER;  // Password for the above
user
[/snip]

The first place is to look in the manual http://www.php.net/oracle

For a connection; http://us3.php.net/manual/en/function.ora-plogon.php
