ober Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 My suggestion would be to build it with PHP4, since a lot of hosts are still hesitant to install and support PHP5. This is especially the case if you plan to give the CMS to other people to use on their own hosts.

Better OO Programming is the #1.. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/5578-cms-php4-or-php5/#findComment-20065 Share on other sites More sharing options...
txmedic03 Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 If the servers don't support the PHP 5 you are still SOL though. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/5578-cms-php4-or-php5/#findComment-20082 Share on other sites More sharing options...
