fbsql_connect

(PHP 4 >= 4.0.6, PHP 5, PHP 7)

Open a connection to a FrontBase Server

resource fbsql_connect ([ string $hostname = ini_get("fbsql.default_host") [, string $username = ini_get("fbsql.default_user") [, string $password = ini_get("fbsql.default_password") ]]] )

fbsql_connect() establishes a connection to a FrontBase server.

If a second call is made to fbsql_connect() with the same arguments, no new link will be established, but instead, the link identifier of the already opened link will be returned.

The link to the server will be closed as soon as the execution of the script ends, unless it's closed earlier by explicitly calling fbsql_close().

Parameters:

hostname

The server host name.

username

The user name for the connection.

password

The password for the connection.

Returns:

Returns a positive FrontBase link identifier on success, or FALSE on errors.

Examples:
