Hi all, I'm just getting into porting some PHP scripts to Python. One
issue that I'm having is that the scripts need to run on a host with
Python 2.4 that has neither the json nor simplejson packages
available. I figure that I'll have to include the loads() and dumps()
functions in my application. Where might I find the source for these
two functions? What would be the best way to include them?

Python 2.4 is no longer receiving security updates. If you're exposing a
web app on the Internet using Python 2.4, it's just a matter of time
before you're hacked.

Time to change hosting companies, methinks.

If it is a Centos or RedHat based Linux system, it will support simplejson.

[steve@ando /]$ sudo yum install simplejson

Installed:
  python-simplejson.i386 0:2.0.9-8.el5

Complete!
[steve@ando /]$ python2.4
Python 2.4.3 (#1, Jun 18 2012, 08:55:31)
[GCC 4.1.2 20080704 (Red Hat 4.1.2-52)] on linux2
