Those who use PHP are in for a treat this month as the development team has released updates for both the current and old versions, 5.4 and 5.3 respectively, of the scripting language. There’s nothing major, of course, but there are a number of bug fixes that developers should be aware of.

Starting with PHP 5.4, the latest update brings it up to version 5.4.14. With this update, the team has fixed more than 10 bugs. Here’s the full changelog:
