What type of web hosting support for PHP? 

There are many web hosting providers in the world. I think there are thousands providers online. If you search in google with 'web hosting' keyword, you will get millions of pages.

Each web hosting has different features and advantage. Almost of all web hosting provide PHP engine for their customer. You can see their feature via their site or call their tech support.

PHP releases PHP 5 for years. But some web hosting still provide PHP 4 version. PHP 5 is newer and better than previous version. You should note this.

Choose web hosting that already provide PHP 5 version. Almost all web application build in PHP 4 will work at PHP 5. But not all web pages that build in PHP 5 will work at PHP 4.
