Today I have been presented with a new difficulty. Our web server is a Novell box running Apache. Call it a LAMP if you want. I have been requested to develop a PHP application accessing some data in the accounting dep. database. Problem is, the accounting database is a weird, non-relational database called Acomba and is only accessible trough ODBC and DSN under a Win2003 server.
To be honest, I’m stumped on how I’m going to make my php apps "talk" to our windows box ODBC.
I understand that my problem is not “Pure PHP” but if any of you got idea on how to accomplish this or can point me to the right website/article/forum I would really help me.
Thank you for your time.

Or, if you prefer db-abstraction, and a feature-rich library, use adodb (which supports ODBC as well):
