AW: [PHP-WIN] Need Help Upgrading PHP...

Hi Tony, seems you are out on the ocean ... To stand a jump from 4.0.6 to 4.3 you might wish to schedule some rehearsal. Get a 4.3, work yourself through _news.txt_, set up a parallel system on a specific machine and tell your customers to get acquainted with it. This step definitely isn't plug and play! There have been _lots_ of changes in default behaviour, so you will have to tweak PHP.INI or decide to move your customers in certain (e.g. security related) directions. You will know when you see _news.txt_. Your mileage depends a lot on the use your customers (are allowed to) make of PHP !
