HowTo get S9y picasa plugin working with PHP5

• Save the translation file written by Alexandre from here to the directory of the plugin. Strip the ending .txt (so it ends on .php). The location of the plugin is usually BLOGBASEDIR/plugins/serendipity_event_picasa/.
• Edit the file serendipity_event_picasa.php in the same directory.
• After the "Don't hack" statement insert the following lines:
  
  
  // Quick Hack for compatibility with PHP5
  if (version_compare(PHP_VERSION,'5','>=')) {
          require_once(dirname(__FILE__) . '/domxml-php4-to-php5.php'); //Load the PHP5 converter
  }

That's it. Now the plugin checks for the PHP version and if it is 5 or higher, it includes the converter file. Now the needed functions are available again.

I hope, this helps somebody, who stumbles upon the same problem.
