Sorry, I didn't read carefully enough.
Well, if you just need a basic installation just yum it.
yum search php
yum install php.i386
Well, if you just need a basic installation just yum it.
yum search php
yum install php.i386
The current version in a repositories is 5.1.6 and yum also has most of the standard extensions you need pdo, mysql etc.

To upgrade RHEL4 to RHEL5, get a set of RHEL5 CD's, boot from them on your server and go through the standard upgrade option during the installation.
I would also suggest looking at the upgrade log files in /root after the fact for warnings regarding the config files - some config files have changed the format from 4 to 5 and you will need to review them manually. The ones that come to my memory are vsftpd and xinetd configs, however, there are a few more.
Overall, the process is pretty straightforward.

sitg, hi.
I read your comment history, then searched google a little and found there is no easy way to install PHP5 on EL4 (because it have lots of newer dependencies): http://www.mehtanirav.com/2006/04/22/installing-php-on-rhel-4/
http://www.centos.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?viewmode=flat&order=ASC&topic_id=1724&forum=28&move=prev&topic_time=1133346752
That's a working solution:
http://forum.ensim.com/showpost.php?s=993b26434a3a30083bf00bfd4e58db3a&p=68931&postcount=7
Run steps from 1 to 4, then edit your httpd.conf and check that correct module loads (from andythedestroyer post above). Anyway you should remove PHP4 before installing PHP5.
If it fails and you have enough time, I'll install RH EL4 locally and try to upgrade PHP4 myself.

Just note that in 5 selinux is turned on by default and can cause problems if you are not used to working with it.
This is a useful webcast helping with selinux if you have trouble during the upgrade
