A number of the topics we are discussing involve modular coding.

Rod Roarks idea of relating diagnoses to encounters and vice versa.

Tekkno Genius’ idea of viewing images from more than one part of the EMR

A billing section such as Rod Roark’s fee_sheet at the bottom of each encounter form.

Sankar Srivatsa’s problem with his Widoes XP installation partially involved his use of PHP 5.0.

As each new release of operating system comes out, more and more their going to have PHP 5.0 as a standard.

We need to think about migrating the code base to PHP 5.0 for the near future.  Not this release certainly, but perhaps the next.

There is information here:

It doesn’t look too ugly, and evidently can be done so that PHP4 support is not broken.  I guess the first person who really likes PHP5 will get to start on it.  :slight_smile:

As per my port,  2.7.1 works on php5, not php4 due to some sql_connect deprecation.  I tried the new source from cvs, 2.7.2-rc1,  it works on PHP5. But didn’t get a chance to try on php4.  I will try on Thursday, if you all can wait.

I downloaded the CVS version on Tuesday.  The calendar didn’t show up on my PhP5.  But overall it looks good though I didn’t poke around much.  Got frustrated with the calendar as it seems to be a good functionality.  So,  I switched to php4.  I have to use the “set password” command as the mysql_connect API is not complaint anymore with php5.

So Good News is: The calendar shows up now.

Bad news :  Calendar doesn’t work in Php5.  I tried in XP and Win2000.
