I don't remember it like that. I think even php2 had support for more databases. One I am sure it supported was mSQL. I think they always had ms sql and oracle too. They were after all always very quick to provide bindings for anything with a C library. One of the reasons for php syntax being all over the place is because they tried to keep the C semantics for any given library. Perhaps what you are remembering is a particular OS or installer's packaging. |

I think I'm remembering the Win32 binaries. At https://museum.php.net/win32/ the PHP3 binaries only have MySQL.
Shared hosts settling on MySQL probably made the difference.
