6 This means you can use it in proprietary products.
11 PHP's database access functions are not standardised. This creates a
12 need for a database class library to hide the differences between the
13 different databases (encapsulate the differences) so we can easily
16 We currently support MySQL, Interbase, Sybase, PostgreSQL, Oracle,
17 Microsoft SQL server, Foxpro ODBC, Access ODBC, Informix, DB2 ODBC,
18 Sybase SQL Anywhere, generic ODBC and Microsoft's ADO.
20 We hope more people will contribute drivers to support other databases.
