title: How do I get the SQLSRV extension to work with PHP, since MSSQL is deprecated?
body: <p>I upgraded to PHP 5.3, and noticed that php_mssql.dll is missing.  After googling a bit, it seems that 5.3 has dropped support for mssql.  So I downloaded the drivers from microsoft, but I can't seem to get it to work.</p>
  
  <p>I am on windows.  What do I need to do, after I unzip the files in the ext directory of my PHP 5.3?</p>
