Php4 to Php5 problems summary?

[Chuck Anderson]

My remote hosting service just upgraded to Php 5. I believe that this
is the cause of one minor error that I have encountered. This line:
<?= // isset($_SESSION['some_var'])?'Disable':'En able' ?>

now produces the following error:
Parse error: parse error, unexpected ';' in
/home/abasama/public_html/demo_enable.php on line 114

[I know it's ugly, but I commented out that line in case I want to reuse
it in the future.]

I've also tried changing it to
<?php echo // isset($_SESSION['abas_demo'])?'Disable':'En able' ?>
and I get the same error.

I don't really care whether I can leave that line as it is or not, but
it got me to wondering what other things might now be broken.

Is there a summary of any sort that would help me know what I should be
looking for as far as broken functionality after upgrading to Php5?

Have you tried:
<?php //echo isset($_SESSION['abas_demo'])?'Disable':'En able'; ?>

Correct code should help ;-)

Considering the 'what's changed' listing: have a look here:
