I've recommended that as a troubleshooting step, and it's a great idea.
If it ends up working out, I'll almost be bummed because I like some of
the new features in PHP 5. The app won't require too many changes,
except that it relies pretty heavily on XML, and SimpleXML made things
really easy. I've never done XML processing with PHP 4, but from a
brief glance at the manual, it doesn't look very simple.
Still, it's worth a shot.

There are some really smart and innovative people on this list, and the
thought had crossed my mind. But the code is pretty lengthy, and
frankly I'd be embarassed to have anybody look at it :-)

I've made this argument numerous times. Management seemed to be
receptive, and I thought they were starting to change their "Microsoft
only" attitudes, so the statement from my boss that management said it
"has to run on IIS" really caught me by surprise.
Thanks,
