How do I install another version of PHP (5.3.10 or higher) on an existing centOS configuration? I don't want to remove 5.3.3 and I want to make both versions available based on what web application I install per domain.

I want to install Joomla and CB to my virtual server at 1 and 1 hosting site. I have basic knowledge and can run command lines as needed. But, I am not a coder or advanced in other areas of such server.

I have a virtual server with 1 and 1 and they install by default CentOS 6 with Parallels Plesk Panel 12 (64-bit) which includes a patched version of php 5.3.3 (but nothing coded higher).

When I go to install the available applications on one of the domain accounts I want to install Joomla (WordPress works fine on another domain) so I can put community builder on top of the Jommla. But, Joomla won't install since it see's php 5.3.3 (patched) and wants 5.3.10 at a minimum.

The 1and1 Plesk that is installed does not upgrade the php in the Parralles installer.

By command line instructions what can I do to:
- "ADD" a higher version of php (while retaining the patched 5.3.3 to keep plesk happy)
- How to make both versions available when I configure the hosting for an account.
