Hi everybody, I'm in a bit of a bind here. My client's hosting provider just upgraded their PHP to 5.3, and a number of things have broken. I have a support ticket in to them to see if we can downgrade to 5.2, but I'm not so hopeful.

I am posting here to see if anyone might have a good workaround for the problems I'm experiencing. The "ereg is deprecated" message is something I can work around, but apparently the webform module has troubles of its own:

http://www.patpdx.org/building.elections

This page should have a long form, but instead the form is missing and the message "warning: Parameter 2 to webform_client_form() expected to be a reference, value given in .../includes/form.inc on line 366." appears. Any ideas?

Again, I know the proper solution is to downgrade to 5.2. I'm looking for workarounds.

clyde,

If you're having a problem with a specific module, I'd recommend you open an issue in the module's project area:

I did a quick search on "5.3" and got a few issues:
http://drupal.org/project/issues/webform?text=5.3&status=Open&priorities...

If none of these match your particular issue, then you can open a new one. Your account has existed for several years, so I'm sure you know, but sometimes we can all use a friendly reminder.

Also, thanks for posting about PHP 5.3 - I was asked by my web host if we should upgrade, and this post helped me decide that many contrib modules are not ready yet.
