[Phpwiki-talk] OldTextFormattingRules still crashes php 4.3.4 to 4.3.6

[John C. <joh...@ua...>]

Well this bug is still in there somewhere.  In the past I have always edited
the editpage.tmp file and removed the part where it transclueds the
OldTextFormattingRules page.
 
This time, when trying to load the virgin pgsrc, I started crashing on
OldTextFormattingRules again.  Well, since I had a blank wiki set up, I
started trying to figure out what line in this page was causing php and
apache to crash (this is a very old bug in the wiki where editing or showing
pages would cause apache/php to crash and the web browser would report
'document contains no data')
 
I have narrowed it down to the first paragraph (lines 15-21 in the pgsrc
file).  It doesn't appear to be related to one line, rather when you get
past 4 of these lines, it seems to crash apache/php. If you cut and past any
5 of the lines, it seems to crash.
 
I'm using Apache 2.0.48/PHP 4.3.6 on windows xp with this mornings version
of phpwiki.
 
One other thing to note:  this code works fine on php 4.2 and only crashes
on 4.3
 
I don't know if the cause is fixable, but for people trying to use phpwiki
on php 4.3, this has to be really frustrating, because you can't edit any
pages.  I'd suggest either removing the old text formatting rules transclude
in the editpage.tmp or removing a few of the lines in the
OldTextFormattingRules page so that it doesn't crash apache/php
 
Thanks,
