I'm kinda going to make WebShop engine from the scratch for my own .com company. Do you think it's the best to use the new PHP5 which is said to have better OOP structure and other extra features? or is it better to use PHP4 instead?

What are the benefits and drawbacks of using PHP5 now?

I don't think there's any reason not to use 5.0. The new object handling in Zend Engine 2 should speed up scripts considerably and OO features have improved overall (access modifiers, exception handling, etc).

Unfortunately, there's no word yet on whether the server modules are stable enough for production use. They certainly weren't in 4.x. The burden of context switches using CGI make PHP impractical for high-traffic sites IMO.

Is there any webhosting support PHP5 already?

any comments about sqlite?
