I would like to install / upgrade to PHP5!
Has anybody experience in that?
Why? Since they changed the language AGAIN, you'll have headaches rewriting your code to work with it. I gave up trying to use php until they stabilize the language. Rewrote the same miserable application 3 times. Screw that!
Mike- Isn't that the same for most languages? Every new release brings in new changes?
Just a question, oh why upgrade if the version that you have does everything that you need!
The PHP crew isn't content to just add new features - my complaint is that they think 'backward compatability' happens to someone else. I'm not kidding - I rewrote the same application (a fairly complex one) three seperate times - every time I upgraded php 4.x, I had to go debug the whole app again! I'll never touch a PHP app again, unless someone else writes it, and I won't upgrade my php unless it's at gunpoint and someone else has already tested the app against the php version.
