FairCom SQL for PHP PDO - Quick Start Guide

PHP (Hypertext PreProcessor) is a widely-used scripting language that is especially suited for web development. FairCom’s FairCom DB PHP PDO module allows you to access the powerful FairCom DB SQL database from your PHP version 7 (and later) projects.

PHP 5 - If you are using PHP version 5, please use the FairCom native PHP extension - see c-treeACE PHP (https://docs.faircom.com/tutorials/php-sql-api/) for documentation.

ODBC - Note that PHP applications can also access the FairCom database via the FairCom ODBC driver, but this method is deprecated, and should not be used. Please see the “php-odbc-api” document for details.
