Hi, I don't know if you ever got an answer to question or not. The answer depends on what type of interMedia support you need. If you're creating an interMedia text search index, everything you need is already there. If you're looking for direct support for ORDSYS schemma types like ORDAudio or ORDImage, you're out of luck for the moment. What you can do is either store the entire PL/SQL block in a php variable and have php OCIParse it, or store it in a stored procedure in your database. I was just looking at the newest PHP manual and it looks like they'll be increasing LOB support in v. 4.0.6 which will be a godsend. It's hard to tell if they'll be supporting ORDSYS types in the next version or not, but I would imagine if the demand is there they'll do it eventually.
