PHP Developer - November 10th, 2006
In case you didn’t get a chance to make it to this year’s Zend Conference, Cal Evans has put together this cool little video montage of the week.
With a weekend to kill and only a laptop to amuse myself, I sat down to put my feelings, my emotions, my raw soul into something that would express the impact the conference left on me. Unfortunately, what came out was something a bit less moving than I anticipated but none the less, it was fun to make and it’s slightly amusing to watch.
So, check out the video, makes a few comments and relive a great week for all who attended. (And yes, I’m in there somewhere…)

Responding to the recent comments about the filter extension included in recent PHP 5 releases from other members of the community, Pádraic Brady has posted comments on the matter including his experience with the extension and his worry about the other comments tarnishing the extension’s reputation.
Personally I haven’t tested ext/filter. I should no doubt be shot like a rabid dog for daring to post about this for that reason alone. Commenting idly without any knowledge of an extension is obviously illegal somewhere, possibly China.
He notes that some of the comments (the more inflammatory ones) were a bit out of place, and that feedback about issues has its place - not in major public view. He worries that the negative comments will cast a negative shadow on the extension and that the “back and forth” that’s a result of it only serves to cause more trouble than it’s worth.

For those PHPers out there that use the vi editor for their coding travels, Bjarte Karlsen has posted something that might help you out - two configuration files that he uses to work with PHP files in vim.
In a recent chat on #phpc we started discussing vim and talking about vim setups. Surripui posted a blog entry about this asking for setups. I promised that i would post my setup so here it is.
The two files are his:
Between the two of these, the editor is able to correctly handle PHP files, syntax check files and tab complete function names. There’s also a mention of using gsnippets for working with code templates.

On the PHPHacks.com site today, there’s a brief overview of some of the more popular PHP frameworks offered to date, including the Zend Framwork, CakePHP, and Symfony.
New frameworks are being released almost every other day in the PHP community. With over 40 frameworks available it’s difficult to decide which framework works best for you, especially as each framework offers different functionality.
There’s ten on their list, including the ones mentioned before and others like eZ Compontents, CodeIgniter, PHP on Trax, and the Seagull Framework. For each of them, they list out three to four bits of information about features/bundled modules/unique functionality/etc. It’s some pretty good information, but I wish they’d also included one other thing for all of the frameworks - links to their homepages.
