Re: PHP5 & Commercial Development

Eric, PHP is fine for commercial environments. Many people are just afraid of it due to the fact it is known to break some poorly written PHP 4 scripts, and the fact that many people don't think it's new features are "necessary". It is perfectly fine to use it in a commercial environment however. - Craige On 2/2/07, Richard Lynch <ceo@l-i-e.com> wrote:

However, a lot of time has passed and we're at v5.2 now...have things changed? Have Google&Yahoo, for example, moved to PHP5? Or is PHP4 still the recommendation for such environments? Do you need XML processing or SOAP? What are your performance requirements? Are there features in Apache 2 that you need? Are you using only PHP extensions that are known to be [probably] thread safe? You've grossly under-documented your needs, to the point that nobody can answer your question very well. -- Some people have a "gift" link here. Know what I want?
