It depends:
What webserver are you using? PHP/Apache will let you load extensions using .htaccess, which can be your own extensions, located in a directory that you have write access to. I've never tried it but something like php_extension_dir /home/yourname/php_extensions php_extension your_php_extension.so should do the trick.
If you don't mind modding your php code, to take account of the fact that these extensions aren't available by default, you can create a function to load dynamic modules, using the extension_loaded() and dl() functions (see the examples on www.php.net/dl ). Bare in mind that this will not run in certain webservers, noteably Zeus, and IIS.
Its apache 1.3, 2.0 is not a goer until threading support is available unless it is already ? What I was asking is, are we able to run say phpize as a non root user and build a module that can be dynamically loaded ? I wouldnt mind checking out the PHP5 soap extension , but getting an admin to install it will take forever. Lemme know thanks.
