    <note>
     <para>
      In PHP versions before 5.0.0 you must use <function>ocipasswordchange</function> instead. 
      This name still can be used, it was left as alias of
      <function>oci_password_change</function> for downwards compatability. 
      This, however, is deprecated and not recommended.
