# XLIV. InterBase functions

# Introduction

InterBase is a popular database put out by Borland/Inprise. More information about InterBase is available at http://www.interbase.com/. Oh, by the way, InterBase just joined the open source movement!

> Note: Full support for InterBase 6 was added in PHP 4.0.

> This database uses a single quote (') character for escaping, a behavior similar to the Sybase database, add to your `php.ini` the following directive:

>     magic_quotes_sybase = On

# Requirements

# Installation

# Runtime Configuration

The behaviour of these functions is affected by settings in `php.ini`.
