Thanks a lot. I got it to work..just downloaded the source files of
apache web server and php4 ..then downloaded the oci8-1.2.2.tar.gz
files....compiled and built the apache, php4,oci8 files..added the
extension_dir and extension=oci8.so to php.ini..and yahoo! oci8 was
showing as supported..but now I have one other problem...

Im trying to connect to a remote oracle database, but when I run the
php code..it gives me the following error

ocilogon(): ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service
requested in connect descriptor in /home/danish/htdocs/test.php

Thanks
Danish
