I need to upgrade PHP to whatever level allows the following functions:
phpinfo(), set_time_limit(), fread(), feof()

Because it is becoming a real pain as random pages in my MyBB forum and some of the plugins have just become blank or error pages because of this and I have to make unsupported code modifications to make some of them work (others I can't fix, and whenever the MyBB releases an update, it overwrite the code modifications and breaks the forum again). My forum sitemap generator won't work without set_time_limit(), because if it runs longer than the timeout value, it won't finish correctly (it must run multiple times using that function) and the other 2 functions listed. Just commenting out these lines does NOT fix the problem, and I'm not experienced enough with PHP to rewrite everything.

You can only upgrade to the advanced version of PHP if you have prior administrative approval. I'll move this to level two support.

Okay, well I guess I need to request PHP level 3/advanced, because on the scripts I have worked with so far, commenting out the phpinfo() line does NOT fix the errors, and only causes more problems, and I don't have enough experience to rewrite MyBB 1.4.1 to work without that function.
Edit:
I also need set_time_limit() working for one of my cron-job scripts (forum sitemap generator), as I just noticed that my last eighty-something cron-jobs failed due to that.

Edit: Other functions that are required for my scripts to work: fread(), feof() - (now I get 'resource not found' with those 2).
Edit:
I updated my main post, I hope someone takes a look at this.

I'll refer this to Corey in the A.M.

Thank you for the help
Edit:
I have submitted a PHP upgrade request to Advanced. I hope this is okay. If I am rejected, should I post back here, or does it mean I am not allowed to run a MyBB 1.4.1 forum on my account?

*bump* My upgrade request still has not been accepted or denied.

I approved your app.
