   No, I don't think so; I got MySQL from there, but there's no PHP pkg
available from there (and no PHP4 from anywhere). You're welcomed to give me
a direct link and prove me wrong, since it would be good information, but
there's been no PHP package since the "experimental" one from forever ago.

   I did install PHP 4.0.6 from source to my RaQ3 the other day, with no
major problems thanks to Jens Peter information from the archives:

   There was another posting this week from Möller regarding not using PHP's
built-in MySQL support that you should read as well, if you're installing
that. Also read the PHP README file, since there's darned good information in
there (you should already _have_ mod_so, and the information in the README
will help you determine whether you do or now).

   Always a good idead to search the archives when you're looking to install
something; helps to know someone's been there before you, you know?
