I think this is a valid question, since PHP itself has been developing 5.1 as it stands now... So when is Coppermine going to support 5.x for PHP?

Tranz

Coppermine works with PHP 5... or do you mean to say/ask something else?

Actually no, it isn't...

When I installed Coppermine 1.3.3. I got this error:

Warning your browser does not accept script's cookies

I fixed it by going through the boards, but I can tell you now, Coppermine doesn't support PHP 5 right now... at least 100%.

For 1.3.x you need to enable long arrays. With 1.4.x you don't need to. That's all there is to be said about PHP 5 compatibility.

I found that out after, but wasn't there just a new release of 1.3.x?

Yes, a security update.  Changing all depreciated server arrays into the short style is a long process that has been done for 1.4 and won't be done for 1.3.

Just curious why? Is is really that difficult to make that one change?

kegobeer

As the one who did the change for 1.4, yes it's a lot of work.

No new features will be added to cpg1.3.x - from a developers point of view, that version is "dead". We just maintain it, adding security fixes. Hopefully, cpg1.4.x will be released as stable pretty soon. However, you will run into issues with many apps if you don't enable register_long_arrays in PHP5, so it shouldn't be a big deal. I'm sure your webhost will readily do this for you.

I'm my own webhost, so I already did it.
