JpGraph - Most powerful PHP-driven charts CakePHP - Framework PHP Ten PHP Best Practices Tips that will get you a job | PHP vs .Net Posted by blake on Jun 4, 2008 in Code, Performance, PHP | 167 comments The last couple of weeks have been quite the experience for me. I was part of a big layoff at my former company, which was interesting. I've never been in that position before, and it's hard not to take it personally. I started watching the job boards, and a nice-looking full-time PHP position caught my eye, so I sent out a resume and landed an interview. Find the errors in the following code: So, give it a shot. If you got the missing comma in the parameter list, the "new Array()" error, the colon instead of a semi-colon, the '=' instead of '=>' in the foreach statement, and the erroneous use of '+' on the echo line, then congratulations, you found all the errors! That's not how I answered the question though. After pointing out the actual errors, I made a point of adding comments about those things I just mentioned. So, read on for my Ten PHP Best Practices Tips that will get you a job: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9.

It's not only the DBA's (database administrators) that have to worry about these performance issues. We as programmers need to do our part by structuring tables properly, writing optimized queries and better code. In this article, I'll list some MySQL optimization techniques for programmers. Before we start, be aware that you can find a ton of useful MySQL scripts and utilities on Envato Market. Most MySQL servers have query caching enabled. The main problem is, it is so easy and hidden from the programmer, most of us tend to ignore it. The reason query cache does not work in the first line is the usage of the CURDATE() function. Using the EXPLAIN keyword can give you insight on what MySQL is doing to execute your query. The results of an EXPLAIN query will show you which indexes are being utilized, how the table is being scanned and sorted etc... After adding the index to the group_id field:

PRADO PHP Framework PDF Generation with Zend Framework | LiveDocx in PHP - Zend_Service_LiveDocx Generating print-ready well-formatted PDF documents with PHP is not an easy task. Traditionally, there are two main approaches to PDF generation with PHP. Given sufficient time and patience, both partially get the job done, but still leave a lot to be desired: HTML-to-PDF: This approach is widely used in mainstream applications. Programmatic: This approach offers total control of the resulting PDF. A completely new approach In this article, the author presents an entirely new, third approach. Before we delve into a technical discussion on the inner workings of this new approach, let us first take a look at a practical example. The code demonstrated in this article ships with Zend Framework 1.10 or newer.

Seagull - Framework PHP 30 game scripts you can write in PHP, Part 1: Creating 10 fundamental scripts Getting started As both a game master/storyteller and a developer, I frequently find myself writing little utilities and scripts to help me when running, planning, and playing games. Sometimes I need a quick idea. This article will explore 10 fundamental scripts that can be used in various types of games. We will blaze through these scripts pretty quickly. Back to top A basic die roller Many games and game systems need dice. In many cases, that would be more or less fine. Listing 1. function roll () { return mt_rand(1,6); } echo roll(); Then we can pass the type of die we want to roll as a parameter to the function. Listing 2. function roll ($sides) { return mt_rand(1,$sides); } echo roll(6); // roll a six-sided die echo roll(10); // roll a ten-sided die echo roll(20); // roll a twenty-sided die From here, we can go on to rolling multiple die at once, returning an array of results, or rolling multiple die of different kinds all at once, depending on our needs.

PHP command line syntax checking Posted April 24th, 2010 in PHP The PHP CLI (command line interface) allows basic syntax checking of a PHP file. I'll show the basic usage of this in this post and then a couple of ways to check all files in a directory, and all files recursively down the directory tree as posted by a couple of people on Twitter. Syntax checking a single PHP file from the command line The syntax for checking is like this, where the -l flag is a lower case L: If the syntax in the file is correct you will see this: If there are errors then theses will be listed as in the following example output: Note that the syntax checking only checks for syntax errors - it does not report the usage of variables which have not yet been defined, functions or class which have not be declared etc. So something like this will pass: but these will not: Syntax check all PHP files in the current directory
