The problem with PHP 5 is that the ISP's have to be so conservative.
There's no tagging mechanism which says "process these files with
PHP5, use
PHP 4 for everything else."


Does anyone here remember that on php 3 the file extensions were
.php3? That made moving to php4 easy- files ending in .php3 was parsed
as 3, and files ending in .php were parsed as 4. Why not do something
similar when moving to 5 or 6?


The .php3 extension was more of a pain in the ass than it saved...

It was also possible to compile PHP3 and PHP4 in the same Apache - I
do not think you can do that with 4/5.

However, Rasmus posted a lovely explanation in this forum for EXACTLY
how to have both 4 & 5 running on the same box.

Search for "Rasmus Lerdorf" and "proxy server" and it should come up.

Maybe like 3 or 4 months ago?

actually he posted (an update?) a full on explanation (again!) just 5 days
ago (on the 14th August 2005) on how to do it in reply to this thread!

and he makes it sound so easy :-)
