PHP 5.1.4 Fixes Critical Bug

I haven't seen an official announcement, and it's not mentioned on the downloads page yet, but you can grab PHP 5.1.4 from your favorite mirror.

Presumably, this release comes so soon after 5.1.3 due to the critical bug mentioned on PHPDeveloper.org. I just downloaded and installed it, and the bug seems to be fixed. Thanks, Dmitry!

It does make you wonder what QA/unit tests are being run against new builds for such a bug to filter out.

Presumbly, the PHP 5.1.3 release was not tested against a slightly more advanced web form POST with array form names.

Style Guide

Line breaks are converted to paragraphs. Also use:

  • <a href="" title="">text</a>1
  • <em>text</em>
  • <blockquote><p>text</p></blockquote>
  • <code>2  <?php  if ($foo) {      $foo = TRUE;  }  ?></code>
  1. Note: <code> can be used inline (e.g. in paragraphs) or in a block as shown. Include whitespace and newlines in blocks.
