Re: PHP 4.0 Bug #7867 Updated: parsing *.html through PHP breaks Apache mod_autoindex

Thanks for investigating! "breaks FancyIndexing" == PHP4 stops, cancels, aborts, or prevents Apache FancyIndexing from working as it should. When FancyIndexing is working, <title> strings are parsed for use as file descriptors. Also, HEADER.html and README.html documents are (optionally) inserted into the index results. PHP4 seems to break all of these FancyIndexing features. One FancyIndexing feature that *does* still work is the feature that permits lines to be entered in .htaccess to provide descriptions for each file (which would override the <title> string parsing mentioned above). And example of a directory with broken FancyIndexing: http://www.nnlm.nlm.nih.gov/pnr/samplers/ I'm not sure when FancyIndexing first broke. I do know it was working with PHP2, and I believe it was working in (at least early) versions of PHP3. I'd be happy to provide further descriptions or perform other diagnostics if it would help.
