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 0.9.7 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 0.9.7 here: http://www.suhosin.org/
