retrieving information from LDAP

Hi all
I'm trying to build a page that looks up users based on CN or SN and returns
specific information - IE fullname, phone, email etc - I can get the look up
to work, but so far the only information I can spit out is:
cn=HAR,ou=CATS,ou=EMPL,ou=CONT,o=COName

Can anyone point me to some information and sample code that will allow me
to display this info?

TIA
