Never anything newer or of a different branch than the client's server though, and always being sure that the code will be compliant with other (recent) versions of PHP. > *Live Server OS* Generally, I use CentOS5. I've been involved with that project since 2004, and Mandrake (now Mandriva, of course) since 2002, which is what I use on the desktop side. > *Live Server PHP Version* Usually the latest stable, but depending on the CHANGELOG, I may delay the installation due to a few important reasons. Namely: level of activity (traffic) on the server, what would even possibly cease to Just Work[tm], et cetera. > *Which HTTP Server Software (+version)?* I'm still on the path with Apache2 and - in rarer and rarer occasions - the 1.3 branch. I've used a bunch of other servers, and recently started playing around with Igor Sysoev's NGINX, but aside from Apache, the only server I've really stood completely by was a tiny Windows server written by Mark Thompson at AnalogX. I used to use it for all of my home-based sites housed on a Win98 box given to me (including my X10 and speech-over-web development), written in both Perl and PHP over the years. > *IDE / Dev Environment* Vim on CLI.
