[Xerte] Re: database.php

[Julian Tenney]

It may well be well past its end of life, but the systems people here have only just upgraded to PHP5 from 4.

How big an issue is this, if we insist on PHP5? I agree with the rationale, just not sure about the reality...?

Glad we had that discussion.

Yeah... sorry....

I hadn't known Xerte still claimed to support PHP4 ... so it's highly likely that I will have previously committed something which disagrees with PHP4 - e.g. file_put_contents().

If Julian / Pat wish to still support PHP4 then I will undo whatever I've done - but I feel like it's saying we should still support Windows 95. PHP5 was released in ~2004.

thanks,

David.
