I would almost guarantee security guidelines were the reason. He states they are dealing with tax data, and I would bet they handle some credit card data as well. If they even touch credit card data they have to be PCI compliant (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Payment_Card_Industry_Data_Security_Standard http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Payment_Card_Industry_Data_Secu...) which requires specific versions of PHP.
- pilif 14y agoIf it requires specific versions of PHP, I would hope that doesn't include a self-patched build that deliberately masks erroneous input data by treating NULL as 0 The moment you run a patched build, you're IMHO not running the officially sanctioned version any more.
- alkavan 14y agoWhere does it say in this page a specific version of PHP ? I searched for "PHP" and did not find anything.
