Ah, then just add the one for the php5 and it will point correctly, if you need php5.
This is true for recursive directories. For instance, I have a client site that has an administration console that uses a class written for php5. For the /administration part of the website, I added that line to the .htaccess and it works fine. The rest of the top-level site, though, still is under php4 by default.

Once you get used to it, it will make sense. PHP5 was different enough from php4 that the two are separable, but most of what works on php4 will also work on php5. Keep in mind also that at the beginning of the year, Glowhost will be migrating to php5, so it is good you're getting a jump on it now.
This is the first I've heard that GlowHost will be moving to PHP5 in January. I have some PHP4 apps running and am wondering if the migration to PHP5 will have any negative impact on the PHP4 scripts currently running.
It all depends on the script. Most people are not having problems from what I have been reading, but others will. unfortunately it is hard to say until D-Day unless you test out the site under PHP5 beforehand which you can do on any GlowHost server with your .htaccess file.
