Re: official statement about PHP file extensions?

I don't think there's nothing official. If I am not mistaken, rare case, PEAR recommends using only .php It's kind of an informal consensus to use .php for anything beyond PHP3 and .php3 for PHP3-only files. This way, you script will work in most of webservers that exist. As an open source developer, if you are, I would go with the most used, .php. Even if you are not.. :-) A client or "boss" can always change webhosting services and you gotta be prepared ;-) -- Julio Nobrega. Um dia eu chego lá: http://sourceforge.net/projects/toca Ajudei?
