Ah, I was looking up in the documentation, but seem to have missed that.
Just changed the code, and it's working again! The public/private thing
will only really be an issue if someone other than me is using this
script, which is unlikely just at the moment, but ah well!
And I really would use a PHP 5 server given the choice. I've tried
speaking to the hosting company a few times, but they brush me off!
Thanks,
Ash
