(in the next versions we're planning to eliminate the use of PEAR extension, so we strongly recommend to move your application to PDO)
NEW SYNTAX:
Here the examples with using PDO:
Code: Select all
define ("DATAFORM_DIR", ""); /* Ex.: "dataform/" */
require_once(DATAFORM_DIR.'dataform.class.php');
## *** set needed options and create a new class instance
$debug_mode = false; /* display SQL statements while processing */
$messaging = true; /* display system messages on a screen */
$unique_prefix = "abc_"; /* prevent overlays - must be started with a letter */
$dform = new DataForm($debug_mode, $messaging, $unique_prefix);
## *** variables for database connection
$DB_HOST='localhost'; /* usually localhost */
$DB_NAME='database_name'; /* usually like this: prefix_dbName */
$DB_USER='database_user'; /* usually like this: prefix_name */
$DB_PASS='password';
$dform->DataSource("PDO", "mysql", $DB_HOST, $DB_NAME, $DB_USER, $DB_PASS); OLD SYNTAX:
