To remove depreciated messages form displays you can use the ~E_DEPRECATED value in the error_reporting function something like the following :
error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_DEPRECATED & ~E_NOTICE);
In version PHP 5 there is a new warning state of E_STRICT
To remove there warning messages use :
error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE & ~E_STRICT);
Depreciated functions still exist and you get the warning. So they work as expected. However in a future version they might disappear.
PHP-Register is a new PHP / mySQL application that is used to easily create forms that collect data from your visitors before they are directed to a page of your choice.
The application is easy to instal on on Linux type web server or Windows web server providing it has PHP and mySQL.
In the administration pages you can create forms with each form having input boxes of text, textarea, drop down lists, checkboxes or radio buttons. Each input may have validation allowing you to define the data that a visitor can enter.

Sometimes it may be necessary to use a different version of PHP on a web folder rather than the default. This may be when you have an application that only works on later versions of PHP as it contains functions that only work on later versions of PHP.
On some web servers this can be done using AddHandler in an htaccess file in the folder that you want a different version of PHP in.
So for version PHP 5.1
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php5 .php5 .php4 .php .php3 .php2 .phtml
AddType application/x-httpd-php5 .php5 .php4 .php .php3 .php2 .phtml
You should check with your hosting to make sure that this will work of course.
