Most modern API's follow some version of draft-ietf-ldapext-ldap-c-api-0x.txt This is necessary to provide for LDAPv3. It's not an RFC but it's the closest thing to a standard we got. Your problem with a blank page when using ldap_connect() is most likely due to a segfault (crash) in PHP. This typically happens when there are multiple libraries with LDAP functions linked into PHP. Oracle is one typical culprit. Stig -- PHP Install Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
