[cobalt-users] PHP3 question

[PowerClicks <david@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

I am running PHP version 3.0.7 (on RAQ2) which we got from the cobalt ftp
site. Its been performing quite well with the couple of aps we already
installed.

Today I installed the very neat whois2.php
(http://www.easydns.com/~markjr/whois2/) and all queries are working except
those that require the preg_replace() function (AKA all netsol queries).

I get an "unsupported or undefined function preg_replace()" message.

http://www.php.net/ChangeLog.php3 mentions version 3.0.10 "fixed a bug in
preg_replace() that had to do with "\\" at the end of the replacement
string"

Is that bug the possible cause of my trouble ? I would not think the server
would reply "unsupported or undefined"?

Any ideas? BTW is it problematic to upgrade to the latest php3 version?

Thanks,

David
