I want to test out the webpage on the internet but do not know how to make a connection to the MS Access DB from a webpage. While using the Access DB on 'localhost', I had no problems. Now, I want to publish to a website and put the Access DB on the same website. I uploaded the Access DB to my website already. Now, how do I set up the connection to connect to this MS Access DB? I always get this error when I try to connect to the DB:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: odbc_pconnect() in /home/virtual/site26/fst/var/www/html/db_odbc.php on line 52
Thanks,
David

I don't think that MS Access can run on Linux. Is this a Linux server?

Just to expand on the other comments - you do not need to use the same
database for development and for the published application. You can use
Access locally and MySQL (which makes the most sense in your environment) on
the server.
