The problem for an ISP is - with thousands of customers, he has no way of knowing who has used what PHP extension or feature. Without virtually guaranteed backwards compatibility, a mass upgrade of 4 to 5 could be a major headache. Besides, are the security risks sufficiently severe for the ISP to warrant the upgrade effort+headache? /Per Jessen, Zürich -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
