The PHP 5.3.x branch is still pretty new. That is why 5.2.x is still maintained to provide bug fixes and security patches seeing as there are still a lot of people using that branch. If you are going to do a new install, PHP 5.3.1 should be just fine for you. And that was supposed to have gone to the list as well. Sorry.

Re: [PHP] What is the difference between the two streams 5.3 and 5.2 versions and What is the need for maintaining two streams?
5.3.1 is what we call 'current release'. for those who do not like to sit on the edge, the latest is 5.2.12. both get bug fixes (checkout the home page release announcements), so they are 'still supported'. that means those versions earlier to 5.2.11 do not get bug fixes hence 'not supported but stable' http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PHP ~viraj On Tue, Jan 5, 2010 at 7:22 AM, Varuna Seneviratna phpiss...@gmail.com wrote: Since there are two stable versions 5.3 and 5.2 .What is the difference between these two streams and What is the need for maintaining two streams? -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Varuna Seneviratna wrote: Since there are two stable versions 5.3 and 5.2 .What is the difference between these two streams and What is the need for maintaining two streams? PHP5.3 introduced a number of 'improvements' that require many third party packages to be re-worked. Something which has still to be completed in many cases. In addition a number of key parts are not now available in Windows builds of PHP5.3, so many of us do not have the option as yet to switch TO the 5.3 branch in production. Until PHP5.3 is fully supported and complete, 5.2 still needs to be maintained! -- Lester Caine - G8HFL - Contact - http://lsces.co.uk/wiki/?page=contact L.S.Caine Electronic Services - http://lsces.co.uk EnquirySolve - http://enquirysolve.com/ Model Engineers Digital Workshop - http://medw.co.uk// Firebird - http://www.firebirdsql.org/index.php -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP] What is the difference: include()

Re: [PHP] What is the difference: include()
Only that you can embed vars in the second one.
if $foo='bar';
include('somefile_{$foo}');
will include the file 'somefile{$foo}', where
include(somefile_{$foo});
will include the file 'somefile_bar'

No difference as far as include() goes.
Read the manual on strings to see how PHP treats strings in single and
double quotes differently.

There is no difference in functionality of your example. Single quotes
assumes a litteral string. Double quotes assumes variables within the
string are parsed. In other words:
$myvar = 'foo';
echo '$myvar bar'; // prints $myvar bar
echo $myvar bar; // prints foo bar

If you had a constant named somefile or php and you use the second
syntax, the constant would be interpolated/evaluated to the value of the
constant.
Generally I always use single quoted strings unless there's some need
for double-quoted strings (like if I want to embed a variable) so
something like this can't happen.
Also good idea to only use capital letters for constants.

Re: [PHP] What is the difference between session_unset() and session_destroy()?
Anyway, session_unset() only unset session vars in memory, but session_destroy() deletes session vars from storage. i.e. You can free storage with session_destroy() without waiting garbage collection. Unless programmer discards session id, session data will be created with the same session id, though. -- Yasuo Ohgaki "Carfield Yim" [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]...
