Hello,
i setup my system to run on both PHP4 and PHP5 versions, for PHP5 version file extension must be .php5 now i whant to write operator, which would be parsed by PHP5

Any sugestions?

One of this problem solving could be executing external command $res=exec('php5-cgi ./file_to_run.php5')
but it's not very flexible, i must form response of PHP5 file that it could be understud by operator script file

So maibe i could write my own operator parser, where could be posible to define which PHP version to use

I found the solution:

i simply setup internal page with local IP address, which is parsed via PHP5 and downloading this page via eZ operator

in my local page result is in tags like:

<LocalPHP5Var1><?php echo $var1; ?></LocalPHP5Var1>

and in operator i wrote function getTagContent

this was necesure to use PHP5 for me because in PHP5 you can use multithreaded webpage download. If someone also is interested in multithreaded webpage crawler take a look to http://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/php/examples/multi.html

:) so it seems that i solved this problem by my own
