PHP 5 History - What’s so great about PHP5?

PHP 5 was released in July 2004. It is mainly driven by its core, the Zend Engine 2.0 with a new object model and dozens of other new features. To get more information on the Zend engine, click here.

PHP 5 offers so many enhancements over previous versions of PHP, that we offer PHP5 as our default web design language for Linux-based web hosting accounts.

How do I migrate my web site(s) to PHP5?

PHP 5 with its integrated Zend Engine 2 have greatly improved PHP’s performance and capabilities. In addition, great care has been taken to break as little existing code as possible. So migrating your code from PHP 4 to 5 should be quite simple.

Will I have to use those .php4 or .php5 extensions with your service?

No! That would make coding a pain, so we keep our servers clean, with only one standard PHP version on each server. Just specify which version you’d like, PHP 4, or PHP 5, and then you can just use the usual .php extensions for your web pages. If you don’t specify a version, you will receive PHP 5 by default.
