Hi All,
I was just wondering if there's any possibility that someone will port PHP5's DOM extension to PHP4, maybe making it available as a PECL package? I'm not even sure if it can be done!
This would make the better DOM functions available to users maybe a year earlier on shared webhost's servers, than waiting until the webhosts are comfortable upgrading from PHP4 to PHP5.
It would make it easier for website maintainers/developers to transition to PHP5's DOM extension as only a single PHP4 interpreter would be needed. They could also test old (DOMXML) and new (DOM) scripts side by side.
Cheers,
Scrumpy :)
