I don't have any specific experience with Informix and ODBC, but I do know that the O in ODBC stands for OLE, which is a microsoft protocol allowing programs to connect to each other. If you could learn how toconnect to OLE objects using PHP, then you would be on your way. You might be able to watch connections from other clients to Informix to see what kind of connection string you would need to pass to odbc_connect.
