Does anyone know when/if the shared hosting environments might be upgraded from 5.2.17 (at least, that is the version on my server) to 5.3, say 5.3.6 (the most recent version)? My team wants to use some of the new features in PHP 5.3 like late static binding, but for now we are stuck using awkward workarounds…

We don’t normally have time frames for these kinds of updates. We do a lot of testing before we roll any update out. This would pretty much effect every user on that server, so we have to be very certain that it will be stable and compatible on our hosting platform. As soon as we’re ready to roll out an update we will, we normally can’t estimate when because it can vary greatly.

PHP 5.3 is currently only supported in our 4GH hosting environment. If you don’t already have 4GH hosting plan, you’ll want to upgrade your hosting plan (no charge).

To enable PHP 5.3, you’ll want to add the following to your .htaccess file:

AddHandler x-httpd-php5-3 .php

PHP 5.4 is not currently supported in our shared hosting plans. At this time, I do not have any information available regarding the future offering of PHP 5.4 in the shared hosting environment.
