This is false, it has not been deprecated and probably never will be, ErrorStack is simply a more sophisticated alternative to PEAR_Error. > Also, in trying to test that PEAR-XML_XPath actually works, the > example script XML_XPath_example.php fails with the following; > > Fatal error: Call to undefined function domxml_open_mem() in > /usr/share/php/XML/XPath.php on line 142 > > It looks like XML_XPath needs a "PHP 4 only" dependency, too, just like > XML_CSSML. Also "false", if one takes a look at www.php.net/domxml then you can see it's a PECL ext that is said to "work" on PHP 5, so placing a domxml dep is the way to go, then again, how well does it "work" under PHP 5 ? Well maybe PHP 4 dep is the way to go if one wants no problem from this thing, guess someone should write a decent PHP 5 support to XPath. - Helgi
