Default Programmer wanted

Need PHP person to move a website from an old website to a new one.

The current server we're on is running php version 4.0.4 and the new servers
are running 4.3.1. The release dates between these versions are years
apart. This will undoubtedly cause compatibility issues that will need to
be fixed.

look here:
www.wallstreetpager.com

Then email me:

info@wallstreetpager.com

Cool. Fixing it should keep you entertained for a long time.

Please can you specify a bit more details as to what scripts are
currently being used on the old site.

Step one:
beginning of every script (because register_globals was likely On):
<?php
extract($_GET,EXTR_REFS);
extract($_POST,EXTR_REFS);
extract($_COOKIE,EXTR_REFS);
extract($_SESSION,EXTR_REFS);
?>

Step 2:
Replace in all files, all instances:
$HTTP_GET_VARS with $_GET
$HTTP_POST_VARS with $_POST
$HTTP_SESSION_VARS with $_SESSION
$HTTP_ENV_VARS with $_ENV
$HTTP_COOKIE_VARS with $_COOKIE
$HTTP_SERVER_VARS with $_SERVER
$PHP_SELF with $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']

Step 3:
Test the site

If you have places where file uploads are done, you may have to rewrite
those parts.
