Hello,

Let me start by saying I am a huge fan and love PHP! What a wonderful piece of work. I use it on my personal website and I am now looking into using it at work in a Fortune 200 company!

Our corprate enterprise environment is Window NT/2000 running IIS 4/5 and using IBM's DB2/UDB for a database.

My question is do you intend to support DB2/UDB in the near future? Please say "YES"!!!

Also, one quick question about using PHP with IIS...is it faster used as a module with ISAPI or as CGI?

Thanks guys, keep up the great work!

See http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.odbc.php

The following databases are supported by the Unified ODBC functions: Adabas D, IBM DB2, iODBC, Solid, and Sybase SQL Anywhere. 

Note: There is no ODBC involved when connecting to the above databases. The functions that you use to speak natively to them just happen to share the same names and syntax as the ODBC functions.

Oops, forgot your other question.  I could be wrong but I am positive it runs faster as an server module, as it doesn't need to be loaded into memory each time like the CGI.
