If you're developing with PHP5, but the production environment is PHP4
then at the top of each script you probably want to add:

<?php

ini_set('zend.ze1_compatibility_mode', 1);

?>

This way you will have objects default to pass by value instead of by
reference and you don't end up deploying to production server with some
really hard-to-find dereferencing problems.
