448191 Posted May 10, 2006 Share Posted May 10, 2006 If you're really set on using php5, you can install php5 and bind it to *.php5 files. That way, all the old php3/4 files, with the extension *.php will still be parsed by php4, but you can create php5 apps by using the php5 extension...I did manage to do this succesfully on my testserver, but can't recall the exact procedure. I googled for it, so can you.I don't know what upgrading mysql would have for impact, but there is likely to be some, since it's a BIG upgrade from 3 to 5...
