Hi all,
Right now I have PHP4 and PHP5 on my host . But the service said I need to change php to php5 extension to able to run PHP5 or I need to create htaccess file to run PHP5.
The question is, I want to run vB with PHP5, then I would need to change all vB file to php5 extension. Will it still work ??
If I need to create htaccess file to run PHP5, then how to create that htaccess file ??
Thanks.

about the php version support, upload to host a php file with
then view it with browser and check the version - that will also show you everything supported by that host.
tbh it's sounds a bit weird that a hosting provider will "force" you to physically change all .php to .php5 extension in order for it to work (or it seems to me i didn't understand you fully there).
i'm not really sure what's the quetion here as you talk both about php5 & htaxx.
normally, in order to create htaxx (static file) you can use your hosting admin panel (usually CPanel) to protect some dir with password, and it will take care of things for you.
if you want to make "dynamic db-driven htaxx" that is php-code-controlled, just use search, you can find few modifications posted here.

i see.
well, in that case to create htaccess file just use notepad or any text editor you have, write what they say inside the external link u gave me, then file save as ".htaccess", and upload to your hosting root folder via some ftp client such as WS_FTP or FlashFXP.

or if it won't let you save as that name save it as foo.htaccess upload it to your server and then rename and delete foo.

do you mean the htaccess file contents only 2 command lines ???

yea, assuming you don't need any other configurations / restrictions.
