See the second example here:

http://php.net/manual/en/function.pg-connect.php

8<-------------
$dbconn2 = pg_connect("host=localhost port=5432 dbname=mary");
// connect to a database named "mary" on "localhost" at port "5432"
8<-------------

That will try to use a tcp connection on localhost instead of a unix socket.

Another question I don't believe has been asked is, what does your
pg_hba.conf look like?
