PFMaBiSmAd Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 The end of life of php 4 is the end of this year, in about 8 days. Except for security patches, no new versions of php 4 will be released. Your host might have php5 available either through your control panel or a setting in a .htaccess file. Find out from them how you can switch, or if they don't have php5 available, what is their schedule to provide it. Everyone needs to upgrade to php5 or get left behind. There are very few incompatible changes between php4 and php5 - http://www.php.net/manual/en/migration5.incompatible.php Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/82983-solved-which-php-version-to-use/#findComment-422058 Share on other sites More sharing options...
