PHP MSSQL Syntax for stored proceedures

I need to know how to call a stored proceedure in MS SQL using PHP on a Windows NT server.

I searched the net to find all references to calling one on a Linux server using the PHP functions 'mssql_'.

Here is how i do it now:

PHP Code:


		
			
 $conn = new COM("ADODB.Connection") or die("Cannot start ADO"); 

$conn->Open("PROVIDER=SQLOLEDB;DRIVER={SQL SERVER};Server=MY_SERVER;Database=MY_DATABASE;UID=MY_USERNAME;PWD=MY_PASS;"); 



// HERE IS WHAT THE STORED PROCEEDURE SAYS IN SQL SERVER

//

// Select * from tbl_countries

//



$sql = "procTestCall";



$rs = $conn->Execute($sql);



while (!$rs->EOF) {

    

    $fv = $rs->Fields("COUNTRY");

    $display = $fv->value;



    $rs->MoveNext();

}

$rs->Close();

I need to know how to send a parameter/ variable to the stored proceedure & how to retrieve them back using this method.

Any help is appreciated.

Cheers.

Yeah, they seem to have reorganized their site.
Note that this is not the only way of connecting to a remote MSSQL server from Linux.
Check http://sourceforge.net/projects/odbtp/ to see an example (which works with Access also).

Okay.. I still need help in getting results from the MSSQL's stored procedures.

I followed the directions in the article and edited and recomplied my PHP source... but I have a question on how to bind variables to my procedure call... they only give one example and I think I need more.

I have a stored procedure that returns several rows... how would I bind a result? In the example they just show the binding of a result if just expecting a single integer value.

Also, I tried doing the simple thing such as:

$dbquery="EXECUTE storedProcedure 'parameter'";
$result = mssql_query($dbquery);

But I get timeouts....
