It will probably need a complete rewrite as PHP5 adds new features needed by Config and I had to find workarounds for them in PHP4. The Config package will benefit a lot from the new PHP5 features, especially the xml parser (will use simpleXML probably). Unfortunately, I don't have the time to fix it now. Personally, I don't have PHP5 installed yet. So you will have to find another way to parse your XML. Bertrand Mansion Mamasam
