This is a test script I've been using to connect to a MS SQLserver 2005 thru
PHP and FreeTDS:
It simply connects and list user tables in the DB.

<html>
<body>

<?php
$db = "mydatabase";

  $con = odbc_connect("databaseserver", "domain\\username", "password");
  if (!$con)
    {
        print("There is a problem with SQL Server connection.\n");
      }
  else
    {
        print("The SQL Server connection object is ready.\n");

// List user tables in database
        echo "<h4>Tables in database $db</h4>";
        $sql = "select name from $db..sysobjects where xtype = 'U'";
        $result = odbc_exec($con, $sql) or die(odbc_errormsg($con));
        while (odbc_fetch_row($result))
            {
                print("<p>" . odbc_result($result,1) . "</p>\n");
            }

        odbc_free_result($result);
        odbc_close($con);
    }
?>


</body>
</html>

I think the keywords to use in searching for help are "php ODBC".
Hope it helps.
