On his blog, Dan Scott notes that the PHP language will be getting a native doubly-linked list structure in the coming days (as mentioned by Etienne Kneuss).
This is fabulous news; when I wrote the File_MARC PEAR package, I ended up having to implement a linked list class in PEAR to support it.
Doubly linked lists are normal lists, but the elements also have links to both the previous and next items in the list as well. Two other structures will be added right along with it - SplStack and SplQueue.

As mentioned on the PHPKitchen website today, there’s some results for the current job stats for PHP developers in London:
Andrew sent over this interesting analysis of salary trends for PHP devs in London, was surprised such detailed info was available. The only prob is the salary data is quite understated in my experience, advanced devs can easily find gigs for £50-70k, but it’s certainly true that agencies and often employers do very poor jobs differentiating between mediocre and ninja candidates.
Other details included in the report are things like average max and min salaries, the number of ads matching for PHP developers and a comparison of these to England’s results overall.

On the SitePoint PHP blog there’s a new post from Harry Fuecks talking about a replacement method using token that works a bit better than the typical regular expression method.
Promtped by a real world example, one often-overlooked feature of most regular expressions engines is how subpatterns can useful to whip up tokenizers relatively easily. The problem? I needed to match the word any of the words “Canton”, “Region” or “Group” in a string and perform a follow up action depending on which matched.
His ultimate solution used a set of preg_match generated tokens to do the replaces a bit more reliably. It also makes it easy for other scripts (like his Python example) to use them too.
