Is this spam? Or a real question?

There are several significant differences between 4 and 5. 4 is very much out of date. If you are starting with PHP, pick 5. If you have 4, you should consider upgrading, but that may include dealing with a few things that no longer work.

One thing relevant to MySQL: Do not use the "mysql" interface; use "mysqli" or "PDO".
