Description:

PHP5 is an HTML-embeddable scripting language. PHP5 offers built-in
database integration for several commercial and non-commercial
database management systems, so writing a database-enabled script
with PHP5 is fairly simple. The most common use of PHP5 coding is
probably as a replacement for CGI scripts.

This package contains a standalone (CGI) version of php with FastCGI
support. You must also install libphp5_common. If you need apache
module support, you also need to install the apache-mod_php
package.

This version of php has the suhosin patch 0.9.6.2 applied. Please
report bugs here: http://qa.mandriva.com/ so that the official maintainer of
this Mandriva package can help you. More information regarding the
suhosin patch 0.9.6.2 here: http://www.suhosin.org/
