I'm trying to find out if Telecom do any webhosting plans that support PHP 5.2 & MySQL 5 or higher? Thanks

I don't believe they do - they only do basic (HTML pages only) hosting.

You'd be better to go off with a dedicated hosting company. Main advantages will be:

- If your using PHP/MySQL there's a good chance you'll want support from your host for a certain setup and a dedicated web host will probably be far better than Telecom at providing this
- Hosting companies generally have better interconnectivity with all ISPs other than Telecom

Have a look at www.telecombusinesshub.co.nz (except today as they're doing maintenance until approx 4pm)

They have both Windows and Unix hosting available and (I think) support for PHP 5.2 & MySQL 5.

From memory the 10GB Unix hosting supports php & multiple sql databases.
