Ming and PHP

Ming's addExport and writeExports functions enable you to add a library of symbols, just like you can in proper Flash. This isn't actually documented anywhere, except in passing references on mailing lists, but is very useful.

Unfortunately, they don't work under PHP 4. The fix is fairly simple - get PHP 5, which is available for OS X from www.entropy.ch. Double-click to install, reboot, and the functions work as they should.

I would like to use this as proof that Perl is better than PHP but feel that may be stretching the point somewhat.
