If your package requires a certain PHP version, you can indicate, that PHP > 4.x.x is required by using the following tags in your package.xml: <deps> <dep type="php" rel="ge" version="4.x.x" /> </deps> If you want to create wrapper functions, that's nice, but there is no real need for it. - Martin -- Martin Jansen, <mail@martin-jansen.de> http://www.martin-jansen.de/
