Well, the online manual entry at http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.pg-query.php 
includes this:

Note: This function used to be called pg_exec(). pg_exec()
is still available for compatibility reasons but users are
encouraged to use the newer name. 

so I guess you can assume that otherwise it's exactly the same!

Cheers!

Mike

Don't quote me on this (!) but I think that the functions have simply been 
renamed to bring them in line with the other db functions (like mssql_query, 
mysql_query etc). Thus the syntax and usage should remain the same. Anyway it 
doesn't hurt to try.

I'm using 4.0.6.  That would explain it...

So how does one using 4.0.6 perform a query on a postgres database?  I think
it's pg_exec.  However, my manual is for the newest versions of PHP.  Is the
syntax the same?  Is there an older manual out there?

Thanks!  That definitely answeres that question.

What version of php are you using? pg_query is only available for PHP 4 >= 
4.2.0

[PHP] FATAL call to undefined function pg_query()

2002-05-28 Thread Steve G

Hello,

I don't know exactly why I'm getting this output:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: pg_query() in
/var/www/html/steve/frontdoor.php on line 42

I can successfully connect to my db using:

$link = pg_connect ("host=localhost dbname=$dbname user=$user");

And I even get the proper Database name using:

echo pg_db_name();

but for some reason pg_query gives me an undefined function.  What gives??
Is this function not valid?  The manual says it is..  I think my syntax is
correct...

Line 42 -> pg_query("select * from users", $link);

Can anyone help me?

Thanks!

-steve
