ldap_modify_batch — Batch and execute modifications on an LDAP entry
$ldap,$dn,$modifications_info,$controls = nullModifies an existing entry in the LDAP directory. Allows detailed specification of the modifications to perform.
ldapAn LDAP resource, returned by ldap_connect().
dnThe distinguished name of an LDAP entity.
modifications_info
       An array that specifies the modifications to make. Each entry in this
       array is an associative array with two or three keys:
       attrib maps to the name of the attribute to modify,
       modtype maps to the type of modification to perform,
       and (depending on the type of modification) values
       maps to an array of attribute values relevant to the modification.
      
       Possible values for modtype include:
       
LDAP_MODIFY_BATCH_ADD
           Each value specified through values is added (as
           an additional value) to the attribute named by
           attrib.
          
LDAP_MODIFY_BATCH_REMOVE
           Each value specified through values is removed
           from the attribute named by attrib. Any value of
           the attribute not contained in the values array
           will remain untouched.
          
LDAP_MODIFY_BATCH_REMOVE_ALL
           All values are removed from the attribute named by
           attrib. A values entry must
           not be provided.
          
LDAP_MODIFY_BATCH_REPLACE
           All current values of the attribute named by
           attrib are replaced with the values specified
           through values.
          
       Note that any value for attrib must be a string, any
       value for values must be an array of strings, and
       any value for modtype must be one of the
       LDAP_MODIFY_BATCH_* constants listed above.
