 * I have upgraded my php version on the server to v5.3 and since then I get the
   following exceptions:
    Deprecated: Function split() is deprecated in /home/xnzhcmbw/
   public_html/mysites/chaiware.org/wp-content/plugins/wp-greet-box/includes/wp-
   greet-box.class.php on line 242
 * they appear on my site pages!!
 * 1. Will this be fixed?
    2. Is there a way to just remove the messages without
   disabling greet box?
