Will .php be parsed with php5 or php4.
With the upgrade from php3 to php4 we've just set the script handler per (virtual) host. Default was php3 and the upgraded sites were than using php4. Another option is that you introduce an extention like php5, but removing them later would be a hell of a job. I still remember that i had to rename all the files in several projects. Well, scripting makes the difference! If i find the (bash) script (uses sed, awk, grep and cut) i will post it to the list. For those windows users: Just download the gentoo (http://www.gentoo.org) live cd (16MB) and boot the CD You'll find a very complete installation cd. Just setup a network connection, start the sshd deamon and copy the files from your workstation to the gentoo system. Run the script and copy back the results. (Oh, you don't need to install the distro itself) Note that are more distro that are offering live cd's just a get the 'feeling' of linux, without installing the distro. Much more persuasive than those 120 day limit cd's from Microsoft ;-) -- With best regards, Dave Mertens - Senior Development Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED] Innovative Solutions in Media Schiekade 101 3033 BG Rotterdam, Netherlands T +31-10-2436060 F +31-10-2436066 http://www.ism.nl Quality Solutions - Reliable Partner -- PHP Development Mailing List <http://www.php.net/> To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
