I've got an application which relies on them for sybase type quoting on Firebird, but that will not work on PHP5.3 anyway, so I suspect that the major version has already happened. There is no money to waste time upgrading the old code base, so it will simply stay on PHP5.2 along with a few other legacy apps. This is back a little to the LTS version ... PHP5.2 IS an LTS stable point for a lot of users. -- Lester Caine - G8HFL ----------------------------- Contact - http://lsces.co.uk/wiki/?page=contact L.S.Caine Electronic Services - http://lsces.co.uk EnquirySolve - http://enquirysolve.com/ Model Engineers Digital Workshop - http://medw.co.uk// Firebird - http://www.firebirdsql.org/index.php
