I have PHP4 and PHP5 installed on my computer. I can change back and forth with the click of a button.

I code the same no matter which version I am using, and my code works the same with both versions.

As far as I can tell, the only difference might be more functions and maybe it does some things faster.

I didn't set it up to run anything like anything else. All I did was install it.

Chances are that you're not using the new functions installed with PHP5, which is why it works in both environments.
