Fix for ExpressionEngine File Extension in PHP4

Find the following line (around 5388):

switch ($row['field_type'])

before that place this line:

$field_type = "";

So that switch should look like this:

$field_type = "";
switch ($row['field_type'])
{
    case 'text' :  $field_type = $LANG->line('text_input');
        break;
    case 'textarea' :  $field_type = $LANG->line('textarea');
        break;
    case 'select' :  $field_type = $LANG->line('select_list');
        break;
    case 'date' :  $field_type = $LANG->line('date_field');
        break;
    case 'rel' :  $field_type = $LANG->line('relationship');
        break;
}

rsync syntax

rsync -avz --eahfs --progress --delete /source-dir-without-trailing-slash /destination-dir-with-trailing-slash

// explanation of switches
// -a, archive mode, equivalent to -rlptgoD which does things like recurse through all the dirs, preserves times, etc.
// -v, verbose mode
// -z, compress - makes the copy go faster. doesn't actually compress into a zip file
// --eahfs - (could also use -E, I think)
// --progress - show copy status of each item
// --delete, delete files on destination that aren't on source (sync)
