[SOLVED] PHP 5 compatibility


Derleek

Recommended Posts

So..

 

I just realized the login system I use - modeled after this - is not functioning with PHP 5.  I have only tested locally using mamp.

 

I am not all that familiar with the differences between PHP 4/5 so I have no clue why this is going on.

 

Are there any websites/programs that might be able to spot any PHP incompatibilities?

There are very few incompatible differences going from php4 to php5. Most php4 code will work as is under php5, given identical php.ini configurations. Most problems are due to code using outdated features, some of which were turned off by default over 7 years ago.

 

The php.net documentation contains migration sections that list the specific differences going up from one php version to the next.

 

Aside from using short open tags, that script should not have any problems running under php5.

 

What exact symptoms do you get?
