I thought this was the 21st Century?
OK, you're a knowledgeable bunch and this is kindof Linux related to here goes:
I need to develop a website in PHP containing a form which will support the inputting of e-mail addresses with IDNs, convert the IDNs to Punycode (with the xn-- prefix) and drop all required form info into an e-mail to be sent to the site owner. This most usefully requires the idn_to_ascii function.
This requires at the least (further investigation may turn up more headaches) PHP >= 5.3 or, failing that, >= 5.2.4 with PEAR Installer >= 1.4.0 to install the PECL intl extension.
This I can do locally (after finding yet another bit of broken config in OpenSUSE that needed fixing before PECL would work) but I need to be able to do this on a shared hosting server if this is possible.
Does anyone know of any hosting companies which provide this support? I know a virtualised private host would allow root access and all the control that goes with it but I'm hoping to keep costs down.
Extra bonus features include ssh/sftp/file over ssh support, local .htaccess and php.ini files and multiple domain names to the one site.
