Обсуждение: Perl or PHP DB Access?

I did a search in the subjects for perl or php and only found one, asking if
there was a php book . . . .  What I'm trying to find is either a Perl or
PHP way to connect to and access a postgres database.  If there were some
simple examples somewhere I would really appreciate finding them.  I want to
look into web based Postgres database applications.
Thanks very much for your help.
Paul

There's a fair bit of (hopefully) useful info on using PostgreSQL and PHP :)

Hi Paul,

for Perl always look at CPAN http://www.cpan.org
The DBI and DBD::Pg will be your friends. Actually
DBI is easy to use and DBD::Pg (DBI Database connector
to Postgres) works flawless.

Ulli

For Perl see DBI/DBD. Its a kind if a construction set. You need DBI and
then for every database a DBD. For Perl I use DBD-Pg-0.95 and DBI-1.13.

PHP is nice, too. Maybe a bit simpler for Web-Pages. PHP comes with HTML
docs. You find there a section about the postgres functions.

You can also find instructions on building Apache, PHP and sample
code on accessing PostgreSQL database at:
http://www.redhat.com/support/resources/howto/database/database_php/

Hope this helps!

For Perl try the DBI and DBD modules.

The perldocs are good enough for the perl side of things.
