Preparation for move to PHP5

[JoeP]

I want to move to a PHP5 box. I've already done so in my development / test environment, and have found & fixed a number of issues. Here are the outstanding issues I am aware of... any help would be appreciated
Nusoap access to a web service is broken because php 5 has its own soap client... no idea what to do about this.

I have a fixed IP and would like to know how that will be effected by the change.

Also, do I have to do anything about where my domains are pointed (Bluehost is not my registrar)?
Thanks,
joe

P.S. While bluehost is not my registrar, I am quite satisfied with the features and service they provide as a webhost.

found this suggestion on another board, tried it and it worked for me...
in the nusoap directory replace all instances of "soapclient" with something else. I used "nusoapclient". Make sure and change the file name of "soapclient.php" as well (I used nusoapclient.php for obvious reasons)
Then, in your code where you create a new soap client change the call from

$soapclient = new soapclient(...
to

$soapclient = new nusoapclient(...

the other issues I mentioned are still outstanding.
