[PHP] Newbie Question: Converting PHP3 files to PHP4? | Re: [PHP] Newbie Question: Converting PHP3 files to PHP4?
One thing I noticed when I did some updates to a few of our programs, is that
certain comment lines caused strange errors, and really nothing else.
I basically made a backup copy removed comments, and then added them back in which
made everything work...not sure if somehow the older box ( using pico ) caused some
strange errors that the new version of php spotted, but just in case you are getting
things you are not expecting.

Good Luck!
