The relevant php functions can be found here; they work for firebird as well.

Some of the documentation is out of date or was never completed. When they say link_identifier,
they mean you can use either a connection identifier (as returned from ibase_connect) or a
transaction identifier (as returned from ibase_trans.) You can fetch rows either as arrays or as
objects of a run-time-defined class type. You might also look at ibase_pconnect for efficiency,
opening only one connection to the server and re-using it, and just starting/stopping transactions
on that given connection.
