在Windows 7 32位上使用XAMPP 1.8.3中的PHP 5.5.15连接远程MS SQL 2005？

I am trying to connect my remote MS SQL 2005 Server from 32 bit Windows 7 using PHP version 5.5.15 on XAMPP 1.8.3.

I did use the drivers from:

1) http://robsphp.blogspot.in/2012/06/unofficial-microsoft-sql-server-driver.html

2) https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=20098

I added extensions in php.ini

extension=php_sqlsrv_55_ts.dll
extension=php_pdo_sqlsrv_55_ts.dll

And I even tried

extension=php_sqlsrv_55_nts.dll
extension=php_pdo_sqlsrv_55_nts.dll

I restarted both XAMPP and the computer. But I still get this error:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function mssql_connect() in ...

I also tried the sqlsrv_connect function.

I also tried to use the inbuilt extension=php_mssql.dll by uncommenting and restarting XAMPP and the computer. Still no progress.

I also followed this blog. I also followed How to connect to remote MSSQL database using php 5.5.19. No result.

Anyone please help.
