P.S. Is is true that PHP passed the 1 mil. limit of hosts running it?

oops, s/is/it/ If you count *DOMAINS* declaring use of PHP in their HTTP headers (i.e. excluding CGI-PHP, and on the other hand - including all the false virtual domains etc. (I have many...)), the number reached 1,114,021 on November (i.e. about 1.2 million now), or 357,581 IPs. BTW, I was thinking what would be the best convention for php users to provide a means to let people know their site runs php, either module or cgi binary. My simple convention is a info.php at root level containing phpinfo(). If everyone would do the same, or would enforce another convenient option maybe the numbers will be even more accurate.

Since phpinfo() displays a lot of information (can be configured on PHP 4.0, but it still does by default), this is really not a good idea security-wise... Zeev -- Zeev Suraski <zeev@zend.com> http://www.zend.com/
