vBulletin PHP or PHP3 - which do I get?

[Jon Lawrance]

I've just bought vBulletin and I am ready to download the software. They are offering 3 versions: one with a PHP file extension, one with a PHP3 extension and one with a phtml extension.

Which one should I download to get it to work with the FutureQuest hosting packages?

Does one have any advantages over the other?

Thanks,

Personally I would go with .php especially since PHP3 will soon be out and PHP4 will be in....[nbsp][nbsp].php seems much more general and less restrictive.[nbsp][nbsp]The extensions themselves do not really matter except that hosts tend to require usage via only this or that extension.[nbsp][nbsp].php will work fine with FutureQuest.

There is some script code I am supposed to modify before uploading.

The code snippet is included below:

// hostname or ip of server
$servername="localhost";

It says I may need to change the variable $servername if the MySQL is stored on another server. My domain is gettingtraffic.com.

What should I change this variable to?

Thanks,
