[FX.php List] [OFF] FM12 API needs PHP 5.3.6 / 5.3.8 ? ?

[Joel Shapiro]

Thanks Anders!

Yep, that zip's from FM12 -- it's got getContainerDataURL().

getContainerDataURL() uses 
- strncasecmp & substr: both available since PHP 4)
- htmlspecialchars_decode: available since PHP 5.1.0(!) -- which is later than the specs for FM11, which was "PHP 5.0 or higher"

Oddly, though, the FM11 API also uses htmlspecialchars_decode (for the original getContainerData), which presumably wouldn't have run correctly under 5.0.

I've gotta run.  Will report back if I find anything else of interest.

-Joel
