I figured, for the heck of it, I'd try and give the PHP version a try. Especially since I use PHP for some of my own database manipulation (albeit at a much lower level of intensity).
Anyway, here's the problem. When I use PHP on my site hosted at Pair, I have to use extension of php3, not simply php. If I use just php, it treats it as a text file. Given that, I went through and renamed all the files to php3. Of course I ran into other problems since the code inside references php as well. So, I figured I'd change some of that too, a few functions at least. Got a little further. Then ran into a new problem noted below:
Fatal error: Call to unsupported or undefined function preg_match() in main.inc.php3 on line 205
I don't know if this simply means I must go through each and every one of the scripts and change all references to .php to .php3 or not. I'm hoping someone can shed some light on here, or maybe tell me a way to somehow make it look like .php is really .php3 (or some facisimile thereof). I could contact Pair and ask about PHP, but seeing that I've not had the greatest response of late to other problems, I thought I'd check here since more people see to actually participate and provide this help.
