I woke this morning with a grin. Nope, nothing to with the Olympics; PHP 4 is dead and by that I mean it is no longer supported - no more official security updates for PHP 4 - or backports from PHP 5 or PHP 6.
The last release of PHP 4.4 occurred yesterday .
Why is this important - and why am I grinning?
PHP 5 has improved support for Object Oriented Programming, PDO, numerous performance and security...
