Re: php vs net.data

I don't know. But you don't need to use the i5_ database functions. You
can use the db2_ functions. Check out the db2_ database functions at:

http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.ibm-db2.php

I'm assuming that pagination with LIMIT would work with the db2_
database functions. I haven't tried it, though.

I prefer using the db2_ functions because you get more functionality
than provided in the PHP Toolkit. I especially like using
db2_fetch_assoc because you get an associative array where the key is
the name of the field in the DB2 file. It makes code that processes
results much easier to read. I grew up on COBOL and like
self-documenting code.

I do use i5_ functions for other stuff. I don't want to imply something
is wrong with the PHP Toolkit.

Pretty cool, Kelly. The only question is will it work with ZendCore
using
i5_query instead of mysql_query?

Does anyone know if there is a PHP equivalent for the Net.Data report
variables called RPT_MAX_ROWS (which limits the number of report rows
returned by a SQL call) and START_ROW_NUM (which determines the starting

row of a SQL result set to show)
