I found someone to already turn up my laptop ... here is the mail from
Ingmar and Kasper ...

But when I read it now I stumbled across the word "WAMP". Before I tought
it would be general PHP5 fault ... but pherhaps it is just in a windows
environment ...

I'm sorry but I can't test it under UNIX as we haven't got PHP5 on any of our
prod or dev servers ...


greets,
Bernhard

Moin Bernhard,

hättest du zufällig Zeit und Lust, dich mit dem Problem zu beschäftigen?

thanks,

I don't have time to check this myself at the moment. Is there someone
else who can take care of it?
