Its OK guys - only took me two days, it seems to have worked, changed the oci_connect to ocilogon in the script shown on the above website blog on the website .

Wow - It is my first experience with php, Apache and I have to say that it is not for the feint hearted and am surprised at how complex the setup can be for newbies. Whats worse is the lack of helpful, easy to find tutorials for the installations.

Well all's well that ends well, I will have to hope it keeps working.
