Closes bug #62623 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-10-23 17:49:14] philip@php.net Information from within this bug report and within the user comments at php.net/com conclude that the fix for PHP bug #62146 changed this behavior, and that: This extension is no longer compiled by default as of 5.3.15 and 5.4.4. I'm not sure if that is intentional, and instead if it was a problem caused while allowing it to be shared, but regardless it happened. We'll see. But today the documentation is wrong. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-10-23 08:24:52] David dot Gausmann at measX dot com Today I stumbled over this bug, too. The first thing I did was it to look into the Installation/Requirements section of the COM help and found nothing. Then I got very angry and used Google; then I found this bug report. The next thing I thought was "Yes, it's still PHP." Since my update from 5.3 to 5.4 I've got many trouble, such as the different default parameter for htmlspecialchars, which destroys my ISO encoded data from the database (and you preferred solution to add the parameters to each call is insane). So, please fix (at least) this bug, as the described in the post previously to this one.
