- brokenparser 13y agoThanks, I thought it was just me.
- misterjangles 13y agoI thought it was going to be a historical article about issues and features being considered in early PHP versions!
- dancecodes 13y agothe same here :) thinking thats about history
- neals 13y agoI thought it was a list of people requesting a PHP 1.6 binary to test for their outdated servers. Like, very cheap webhosts or something.
- mappu 13y agoIf there ever was a version 1.6, it's not on http://museum.php.net/ http://museum.php.net/ ..
- rmccue 13y agoHeh, thankfully I don't have to support PHP versions that old (although PHP 5.2 might as well be). It's called Requests for PHP to disambiguate it from Kenneth Reitz's fantastic Requests library in Python, which also serves to inspire my library.
- LukeShu 13y agoConsider yourself lucky, A year and a half ago I was supporting PHP 5.1. I wasn't confused by the title on the linked-to page, separating the version number from the name helped.
