How to Connect to Remote Oracle Database through PHP?

Can you see what's wrong with this php code stuff? Trying to connect to database.?

• <?php $username='user'; $password='password'; // For security this bit is normally achieved with an include file $host='co-project.lboro.ac.uk'; $dbName='database'; $dsn = "mysql://$user:$password@$co-project.lbo… //Data Source Name $db =& MDB2::connect($dsn); //Try to make a connection if (PEAR::isError($db)) { die($db-getMessage()); } mysql_select_db("database", $con); $result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM iBayItems"); while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) { echo $row['title'] . " " . $row['userId']; echo " "; } //mysql_close($con); ?> I don't really have much idea what I'm doing, but I think this is roughly what it's supposed to look like, however when I try to make it work all I get is "; } //mysql_close($con); ?> I think this means there's something wrong in the last tiny bit. (I've //'d out the last line because it didn't seem like the computer was reading past that anyway.) I'm trying to get it to connect to the database and output some stuff to show that it's done it.
