Hi Jeff,
I would use the ISAPI version to run plain scripts without extentions (not all modules are thread
safe yet) and if you plan to use extentions I would use the CGI version for that, or at least spend
som time testing for stabillity.
You could also install both and use different directorire for ISAPI and CGI version, or have .php
use ISAPI and .php4 use CGI. The last solution allows you to switch engine just from moving or
renaming the script. That is what I do in my development environment.
