No, you add a <Directory> config in httpd.conf or add to .htaccess a
line like
<Files ~.php>
ForceType whatever/gets/you/to/php-5
</Files>
1) Did you ever see a shared host that has multiple versions
configured like this?
2) This will end up to be confusing for the end user, as they will
need to create the .htaccess file (as most users don't have write
rights for httpd.conf)
Other problems:
Getting 2 PHP modules to co-exist without tromping on each others'
symbols is, I think, the show-stopper...
Both modules are different files, and only one will be dynamically
loaded by dlopen(), that works fine right? or do I forget something?
It was possible to have PHP3 and PHP4 both as modules, I think, but
that was an anomoly?
That was nice :)
You also would have to re-think what happens when a version is
requested that isn't installed at all...
You currently have it just run in the default version, I think, but is
that really useful? If the code really NEEDS PHP 5, and the server
doesn't have 5, only 4, running the code that needs 5 is probably not
the right action...
I did, I think it should generate an error message,
E_RECOVERABLE_ERROR maybe? And then the default PHP version should
just give the code a try, just like it does when it is installed on a
host that has the wrong PHP version installed.
