Ok - so I'm new and got my PHP3 board up and running - so I'm very happy. I like the sites (http://www.overgrow.com/edge/index.php) that are able to load images with their posts:

How do I do that? Do have I have to be running the PHP version instead of the PHP3 version (I thought the PHP3 version was the newest version...). Do I have to do one of these 'hacks' and tweak the code?

Thanks,
Sean Engle

No, PHP3 is relatively old now.

And yes, you have to apply the image gallery hack (I think that's what it's called)

Really? So then I would be better off running the board in PHP then, eh?

Am I right in thinking you mean the .php3 version as opposed to the .php version, rather than the actual version of PHP on the server?
These are exactly the same - just for different servers that support different extensions.

Then it should make no different at all - correct? The 'hacks' that I see for graphics insertions should work on the php3 version of this software as well?

Yes, they'll work. But PHP4 is much more efficient than PHP3 because it's compilation method has been completely redone and optimized.

That's no problem - PHP4 is what my host just loaded on my server (in a "FreeBSD" upgrade?).

Thanks for your help!
