This is not really correct. First of all my instructions were valid for all web servers, including Apache, IIS, and even cgi/cli usage. The only case which it does not cover is multiple versions of php installed on the same box. But I don't belive this to be common case for people who are installing php and reading the instructions. A link to "advanced setup instructions for running multiple simultaneus php versions on the same machine" would be more than enough in the base install instructions. Edin
