     The <TT
CLASS="parameter"
><I
>database</I
></TT
> argument
     has to be a valid path to database file on the server it resides on.
     If the server is not local, it must be prefixed with either
     'hostname:' (TCP/IP), '//hostname/' (NetBEUI) or 'hostname@' (IPX/SPX),
     depending on the connection protocol used. <TT
CLASS="parameter"
><I
>username</I
></TT
>
     and <TT
CLASS="parameter"
><I
>password</I
></TT
> can also
     be specified with PHP configuration directives ibase.default_user and
     ibase.default_password. <TT
CLASS="parameter"
><I
>charset</I
></TT
> is the default
     character set for a database. <TT
CLASS="parameter"
><I
>buffers</I
></TT
> is the number
     of database buffers to allocate for the server-side cache. If 0 or omitted,
     server chooses its own default. <TT
CLASS="parameter"
><I
>dialect</I
></TT
> selects
     the default SQL dialect for any statement executed within a connection,
     and it defaults to the highest one supported by client libraries.
