In a new post Juozas Kaziukenas takes a look at reasons he thinks you should (or shouldn't?) use the Zend Framework for your next application. This is not a comparison of frameworks though, because I don't feel like having enough experiences with other frameworks to make a fare comparison, that's why this is going to be only a Zend Framework analysis. He starts with some of his history with the Zend Framework so you'll know where he's...

Tibo Beijen has a recent post to his blog about using a popular component of the Zend Framework, Zend_Form, without having to use the entire framework to get it. Most components of Zend Framework can be used without using the entire framework and Zend_Form is no exception. It's a versatile component that can be customized to great extent. The payoff is that seemingly easy tasks can seem quite complex to complete and involve concepts like...

Padraic Brady reminds you in a recent blog post that the 2.0 version of the Zend Framework is coming - are you (and your application) ready? It's somewhat common knowledge that the upcoming Zend Framework 1.10 release may be the final minor release in this branch of the Zend Framework. From that point forward many of us will be focused on Zend Framework 2.0. What's interesting, to a degree, is how little attention this seems to be getting...  

I am trying to accomplish two things with the code below: 1. Make the output display using an adjustable variable for the html table. output: ex: a variable of $tr=4 would display 4 rows of images, instead of a single row of images that I need to scroll across the page to view. 2. I want to...

I have done this only once, so this may be incomplete, but here goes. I assume you have already edited your wp-config file to point to the corredt DB, and that you have phpAdmin, or equivalent.

Once that was done, I ftp'd the SQL to the host and used the Import...

OK! I figured out what was going on. In my case the database wouldn't update for two reasons. The first issue was that the database I was exporting from my local machine was in the wrong format. When exporting a database from PHPMYADMIN you need to have the format set to SQL. The second issue I ran into after THAT was that the database that was created on the hosting server would not allow me to upload my information to it. Still...  

Matthew Weier O'Phinney has posted the results of the latest Bug Hunt Days for the Zend Framework that happened back on November 19th and 20th.

The problem is that I've tried to create page called /blog for my posts to appear on, but it's not working as I get a redirect loop instead. The .htaccess file of the root currently reads: RewriteEngine On RewriteBase /blog/ RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond...

Robert Basic has a quick new tutorial about chaining routes in your Zend Framework applications: On a forum, there was a question today, about adding language "support" to the routes using Zend Framework. The guy wanted routes like /en/foo/bar or /de/baz. I wrote there an example for that using Zend_Router_Routes_Chain, so just posting that example here, too. Custom routing allows you to define routes specific to your application without...  

To fully take advantage of custom permalinks you will likely need to switch to a server running Apache. You can also do it on a server with nginx, etc, but that requires a little more know-how and a good bit of access to the server. Running on an Apache server allows you to use mod_rewrite and full utilize this feature.

Adam Jensen has written up a quick tutorial about using Doctrine record listeners to link a Zend_Acl component with your database. In previous Zend Framework apps I've written, I often handled access control at the level of the controller action. Each action was represented in the ACL as a resource, and the ACL logic was applied by a custom plugin just prior to any action dispatch. [...] As a result of these concerns, I decided on a lower...  

I'm editing the .htaccess file remotely through FTP. Then I save it and php5 runs (I check phpinfo) - but the permalinks break.

Should I download the .htaccess file, edit, then re-upload? Does it have to do with it's file permissions?

Rob Allen has a quick tip for Zend Framework users looking to get to the configuration values in their application.ini file. Zend_Application will read the data in your application.ini and make it available from your bootstrap's getOptions() method. It then sets the bootstrap as a parameter in the front controller. Note that the top level keys are all normalised to lowercase too. You can then retrieve the options in a number of ways. He...

Unlike PHP, C generally resolves function calls at compile time. When you introduce dynamically loadable shared objects, the ability to know their exact address ahead of time goes out the window and you have to fall back on link-time resolution (or in some cases, call-time lazy resolution, but we'll pretend that doesn't exist for now). It handles variables in much the same way; Resolve at compile-time if possible, link-time if not. As you...

In a new post to his blog Brandon Savage asks why some of the best development tools don't seem to be written in PHP. Trac. CruiseControl. phpUnderControl. Jira. Bugzilla. These are all intensely popular development tools. And not a single one of them is written in PHP. Why? [...] Some might argue that PHP is a lesser language, and thus incapable of producing the results that Python and Java can produce. Others might argue that other...  

Danne Lundqvist has a quick new post with pointers to two articles that're good resources for getting you started with web services and PHP. So after loads of googling I came to realise that even though 2010 is just around the corner there are still very few quality articles on PHP and web services/SOAP available. Most of the stuff I find is rubbish where people who don't know nothing explain things they don't understand. He links to one...  

Jordi Boggiano had the "pleasure" of discovering a small quirk with PHP's glob function in an application he was working on - watch out for directories that contain square braces, they won't return in the results! Working on some personal project that lists a bunch of stuff on my hard drive, I found out that directories that contain square brackets (those []) don't return any results for the simple reason that glob reads [stuff] as a...  

On the Microsoft Interoperability Blog today there's a new post looking at using PHP to help create web slices (little saved chunks of web pages) in Internet Explorer 8. A web slice is content on a web page which a user can subscribe to. The content is then available from a button in the Internet Explorer 8 Favorite's toolbar. When the content is updated, the button glows orange to alert the user that there is new content. When the user...  

In this new post to his KillerPHP.com blog Stefan Mischook looks at a few of the basic steps you can take to help prevent SQL injection attacks in your application. You should protect your relational databases (like MySQL) from the dreaded SQL injection attack. These attacks are conducted by evil sniveling nerds, trying to insert damaging SQL code into your HTML form fields (and query strings too) to do things like drop database tables or...  

Richard Thomas has another Solar Framework Short posted today looking at how to integrate the jQuery Javascript library directly into your Solar application. When it comes to Jquery integration you have 2 main uses. Calling a php function from a website or calling Jquery functions from php both are done through an XMLHttpRequest. By extending a jQuery-related controller, you gain some special automatic abilities like automatic json...  

If you've ever wants an easy "drop in" kind of solution for helping to protect a portion of your site, you should check out this new post from Abhinav Singh about using the has_hmac functionality to do just that. Many times a requirement arises where we are supposed to expose an API for intended users, who can use these API endpoints to GET/POST data on our servers. But how do we verify that only the intended users are using these API's and...  

On the SitePoint Design & Layout blog today Raena Jackson Armitage takes a look at the latest version of a tool that's useful to all web developers - Microsoft's Expression Web 3. She mostly looks at the features of the software, but touches briefly on the PHP support near the end. Expression Web promises an intuitive and helpful web development experience. There's support for code highlighting and completion for a number of different...

On the PHPClasses blog there's a new post looking at using the Gearman framework with PHP via a PECL extension. Gearman is a generic framework to distribute processing jobs to separate processes in the same machine or other machines in a cluster. It allows your application to perform tasks in parallel, balance the processing load, and even invoke code written in other languages. The "Gearman" word is an anagram of "manager". Its purpose is...  

This year, I was honored to be chosen to attend and Keynote at PHP Conference Brasil 2009. It was a very unique experience, and one that I will treasure. The PHP Community in Brazil is very welcoming and it led into a great conference experience.  

Advent calendars are about Christmas, and for me Christmas has always been a time for family. This year I have recently joined the ranks of the parents among you. I am taking a short break from work and focusing on being a mother rather than being a programmer. This has led me to reflect on the similarities between parenting and coding. I present these here for your enlightenment, or so you can laugh at me. Lesson One: Smells Babies, like...  

So I recently got back from Brazil, where I was asked to Keynote at the 2009 PHP Conference Brasil. It was a great experience and I’ve written up my experiences and feelings about the conference itself over as a PHP Conference Brasil Wrapup blog post on Zend’s DevZone. But the point [...]  

See my pics from the event here! I had the opportunity this past week to go back up to Microsoft for the second year to attend the Microsoft Web Developers Summit. The event brings together a wide range of people related to web development in the PHP community. This year the group was made a bit [...]
