2. PHP The Right Way

If you are developing for the Web, the chances are high that you have
to deal with PHP on a regular basis. However, once you've stumbled
upon a problem that you have to solve, finding a good solution among
thousands and thousands of (partly outdated) PHP tutorials out there
can be quite a nightmare — especially if you are relatively new to
PHP. Where would you go to learn about the current best practices in
PHP?

PHP The Right Way

Perhaps PHP The Right Way. The site is an easy-to-read, quick
reference for the best practices in PHP, accepted coding standards,
and links to authoritative tutorials around the Web. Josh Lockhart has
worked together with a dozen of well-respected members of the PHP
community to create a useful, up-to-date resource for everybody to
use.


I've just been perusing it, and it offers some good advice. Anyone
here work on it / read it? Thoughts?

Sounds like a good idea, but as for me - if I was a newbie I'd have a problem with their very first instructions. It says right off the start to type in the following:
php -5 localhost:8000

which when I do (from a dos prompt) gives me a nice description of the command, but fails to do anything else for me. So how does this (as it says) "help me learn with the hassle of configureing and installing a full-fledged web server"?

Are you running 5.4+? First thing it says is "Use the current stable
version (5.4)". The PHP server (-S) is not available in anything
earlier.

    That should be a capital S, not a five.

I'm not running anything. It says to type a command and I did. That's my point - it's kind of misleading in it's introduction.

Yes, it is possible.

The following is an example of a server-side php script refreshing a Web page 
via a javascript client-side action:

http://php1.net/a/zipcode-states/

The action is triggered by simply using the selection control, which in turn 
activates an onchange javascript routine that causes a slave php script to run 
retrieving data from a database returning the data thereby causing an ajax 
script to update the selection control.

All the code (html, javascript) is there except for the php script, which 
should be trivial to write.

Cheers,

tedd

--- Begin Message --- OK I've spent the last two hours going through pages of crap generated by google, and that includes google crap created by searches on sites like http://www.phpbuilder.com - cause mainly of cause by php pages on sites supporting other languages :(
Certainly it seems that PHP is preferred even to website java and ruby ...

I had some problems over the weekend with the network here and decided it was time to get some monitoring in place locally. cacti simply loaded up and I have working system, but now I'm having trouble getting SNMP sorted on the target machines. So I started looking for an editor to handle the MIB data and keep hitting one dead end after another.

I'm sure there must be something out there using php-snmp for a browser?
