Re: [nyphp-talk] Intellectual Monday

I got nothing on chaining, but I have some opinions about the prototype concept. The prototyping concept in general is similar to using a static member in Java. A function prototype in JavaScript is a member that is common to all instances of that function (read: class). If one instance d

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 I must say that both techniques *can* lead to hell when debugging. The idea of adding new methods ontop of existing classes is usually not safe if not documented well. The one thing I liked about the verbose-ness of Java is the fact that I always kne

Partially. Once I find all the zip codes within an x-mile radius I have to find all records in a db table that match any of those zip codes. Load an array of zip codes within an x-mail radius, Let's assume $ZipArray. Next. $Subselect = "(" . implode('",",$ZipArray) , '")'; Let's addition

Re: [nyphp-talk] Intellectual Monday

I have been digging into JavaScript and jQuery, and am intrigued by several concepts. 1. jQuery uses chaining, whereby every method within jQuery returns the query object itself. 2. JavaScript's prototype method is an interesting concept for adding methods to existing classes. I wonder how th

Thanks for the info, I'll check it out. Urb You almost certainly want to use the Haversine formula for this task (calculating distances to points that are quite close on a sphere). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great-circle_distance The basic Great Circle formula gives *incorrect* res
