PHP4 or PHP5?

[JmZ]

Just out of interest, which version do you use?

The reason I ask is because I could code WCDDL2 to use various PHP5 features but it won't work in PHP4 if i do.

Although, i dont think it works in PHP4 now anyway (if anyone can confirm that).

PHP is for the oldies.

Majority use PHP5

Majority of hosts might have updated their servers to PHP5. No one would be running of PHP4

gotta be old school :P

I use PHP5, just now starting to play around with all the new stuff in 5.3.

 

[DeLeTeD]

php5, new shit, better. Stay with the times.

You'd be surprised, a LOT of servers still run PHP4 because the owners are too lazy to update.

PHP5 it is. Btw - PHP3?

 

[DeLeTeD]

yea jmz is right might be a problem when they do

 

[snowmanrene]

Yea quite a lot of webhosts still use php4.

anywho...php5 is the way forward.

 

[UltimA]

PHP5, definitely.

Bear in mind that PHP6 isn't too far around the corner.

 

[JmZ]

Yeah cant wait for PHP6, think they finally got rid of safe mode.

Man how can people be so lazy to just run one command to get PHP updated xD

Yeah cant wait for PHP6, think they finally got rid of safe mode.

Yes. It'll get rid of the safe_mode probably a nice move as alot scripts require safe_mode to be disabled. But, then what will be its alternative ?

PHP5, definitely.

When is it exactly releasing ??? =))

There will be no alternative. And the reason of getting rid of safe_mode isn't because some scripts require it to be disabled.

PHP 6.0 is already out in beta right?

 

[Mac]

Affirmative, http://snaps.php.net

First of all, please reply only if you know what is going on. Don't post because you just want to post.
Secondly, many scripts DO require Safe Mode to be ON.
PHP Safe Mode means

The PHP safe mode is an attempt to solve the shared-server security problem. It is architecturally incorrect to try to solve this problem at the PHP level, but since the alternatives at the web server and OS levels aren't very realistic, many people, especially ISP's, use safe mode for now.

So I guess people who run big ISP require safe mode to be ON.
Got it ?
If you still don't know why Safe Mode is required then read here :
http://php.net/manual/en/features.safe-mode.php
And also if you don't know PHP then go here : http://php.net/

Hope understand it in someday xD lol

They must have got a better alternative.

Most scripts require safe_mode to be on? Tehfuck?

Oh and learn what racism means

Yes. It'll get rid of the safe_mode probably a nice move as alot scripts require safe_mode to be disabled.

Safe mode is not an answer to security. It shouldn't be used at all. See my thoughts in this post.

 

[JmZ]

Safe mode is a broken feature (in PHP's words, not mine).

It was made to make the environment safe but just complicated things.
No alternative is needed.
