PHP 6 Features

The likely set of PHP6 features is:

Internationalization: Native Unicode – UTF-8 – to the core (strings, APIs).
Performance: Page level (opcode) caching through moving Alternative PHP Cache (APC) into the PHP core. Native application caching.
Break to label: Sending a break to a label (like a goto).
Enhanced array indexing: Array indexing can be used to substring or take an array slice.
Removed features: Magic quotes will be removed.

If Php site needs to run in PHP 6.... it should not be dependent upon the following features which would be removed in V6

- magic_quotes
- register_globals
- register_long_arrays
- safe_mode
