I've learned it also the hard way the ISPs or Hosters did change INI settings.
I've started to document their INIs for every new version and compare them
immediately once they upgraded to spot the differences. Worked well for me (as
long as I had to be dependent on such companies), YMMV.


I'd only taken over managing these sites in the last month which is why I was panicking a bit. I've only just finished cloning all the site data to one of my own systems and cloning the config would have been the next step :) Not having had time to review the code I did not even know where the problems were ...

Kris - this is just about '<?=' and while I don't normally embed php in html templates, it is much better to see <?=$data?> than <?php echo $data ?> and this seems to be used by a number of frameworks - hence fixing the problem in 5.4 ...
