I've got experience with Colossus. I've also compiled php3 and maybe php4 on one of their dedicated boxes. It seems that a few of the include files reports wrong. You'll have to compile on their system, because of the libraries installed. What errors do you get? I didn't realize they were using that version. Next time I speak with Eric, I'll ask him about upgrading. But it took them many moons to upgrade to FrontPage2000. Short term, we can get the Block_render_query.class to work on that system.
