Yes, please! :) Remember KISS ... (and I'm not getting over-friendly here). In fact you can get pretty near 100% with the simple solution just by having multiple copies of the PHP executable in different directories - one for each differing configuration. On modern disks the size of PHP is insignificant, so having multiple copies is a non-issue. In fact this is an advantage. If (say) you are running multiple PHP-based web applications, each requiring different configurations, you may in fact be dependent on different versions of PHP. A good, careful sysadmin will want to upgrade one application at a time (and test!) rather than all at once, and will want each application using it's own PHP executable. IMHO the more complicated solutions aren't really needed. -- PHP Development Mailing List <http://www.php.net/> To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
