PHP 5
By default, the web server cluster shared by Sonic.net customers will interpret .php files using a fully-patched version of PHP 4. To use applications and scripts requiring PHP 5.x functionality, the PHP 5 interpreter must be explicitly specified.
.htaccess
To have the Sonic.net shared web cluster interpret .php files using PHP 5, a .htaccess directive must be issued. Create a text file named ".htaccess" with the following contents:
Action php-cgi /cgi-bin/php5
AddHandler php-cgi .php
Place the .htaccess file into your site's main directory (most frequently /home/WWW_pages/username/ or /home/WWW_pages/username/example.com)
