	      Object oriented style

	      <?php
	      $maxdb = new maxdb("localhost", "MONA", "RED", "DEMODB");

	      /* check connection */
	      if (maxdb_connect_errno()) {
		 printf("Connect failed: %s
", maxdb_connect_error());
		 exit();
	      }

	      if ($stmt = $maxdb->prepare("SELECT name FROM hotel.city WHERE name=? OR state=?")) {

		 $marker = $stmt->param_count;
		 printf("Statement has %d markers.
", $marker);

		 /* close statement */
		 $stmt->close();
	      }

	      /* close connection */
	      $maxdb->close();
	      ?>

       Example #2

	      Procedural style

	      <?php
	      $link = maxdb_connect("localhost", "MONA", "RED", "DEMODB");

	      /* check connection */
	      if (maxdb_connect_errno()) {
		 printf("Connect failed: %s
", maxdb_connect_error());
		 exit();
	      }

	      if ($stmt = maxdb_prepare($link, "SELECT name FROM hotel.city WHERE name=? OR state=?")) {

		 $marker = maxdb_stmt_param_count($stmt);
		 printf("Statement has %d markers.
", $marker);

		 /* close statement */
		 maxdb_stmt_close($stmt);
	      }

	      /* close connection */
