Hi Chris, I can see where you are coming from. I put together another version of this that entirely uses the PHP CSS templates: http://files.edin.dk/php/installer/snaps-html/index-phptemplate.html
New one looks better, I would prefer this. It looks and feels more like the main PHP.net site. I also went ahead
and changed the branch names to PHP 4, PHP 5, and PHP 6, instead of 4.4.x-dev, etc.
Would like to see the branch name 4.4.x-dev , 5.5.x-dev, etc. and not PHP4, PHP5. I'm curious now which one everyone prefers, the previous one (
http://files.edin.dk/php/installer/snaps-html/index.html ) or the one listed above.
