Re: [PHP] phpinfo problem
Thanks Chris, That was the problem. Is this new php5? I've used 3 prior php4 version and didn't have this problem.

The problem people will have is having to go through ALL the PHP5 changes when converting from PHP4. Why is that a problem? I would have thought that that is automatic. Surely you're not suggesting that people are upgrading from PHP4 to PHP5 without exhaustive testing?

Most of my tags are the long type, justa very, very few that are not, but I have turned short tag support on. Also, this was not a planned upgrade. I run Slackware 9.0, PHP4 MySQL4 on my server, Kubuntu on my workstations. Debian has dropped support for MySQL 4. I needed to add mysql 4 to my workstation (to solve a server problem) and found that the mysql4 binary was not compatible with the debian packaged php5 so I had to remove that and install php5 from source. Kind of a domino effect. I do much more reading and testing when do a planned upgrade, I just didn't have the time this time.
