I have a general question regarding this function and regarding php general
If i understand well, sqlsrv_connect() is a php function? The dll is the driver that perform a connection to an SQL server, when the specific function is called. Why when i type this function in a php editor, the php doesn't recognize it as a function? Logically php must understand this function and when i run the script, if the driver is not installed and is not placed in the correct folder, in runtime to get an error.
Thank you
