PHP 5 has now been configured to run as the default PHP application on our servers. We encourage you to embrace PHP5 as the new standard, however, if you would like to continue using PHP4 on your account, simply add the following line to your .htaccess file located in public_html (or create one if one does not already exist):

AddHandler application/x-httpd-php4 .php

If you have any questions, or need any assistance, please do not hesitate to open a ticket..

Dear Customers,
On Monday, June 9th, WebSolvents.com will be making PHP5 the default PHP environment on all of our accounts. PHP4 is becoming very outdated, and is no longer developed or supported.

After the switch, PHP4 will still be available by using the AddHandler in .htaccess (we will post instructions for this at the time). However, we strongly encourage all of our customers to begin using PHP5 as PHP4 will eventually become obsolete. Some older applications may have issues with PHP5 and need to continue running on PHP4.

If you have any questions, just let us know and we’ll be glad to assist.

Thanks,
WebSolvents Staff
