Mattias Geniar's Blog: php_value vs php_admin_value and the use of php_flag explained22 February 2012, 6:14 pm
In this quick post to his blog Mattias Geniar looks at three different Apache flags you can use in your configuration/.htaccess files to set various things in your PHP environment. Back in 2009 there was a bug in the php_admin_value implementation before PHP 5.2.6. Since then, everything should run smoothly again. However, I find there's still a lot of confusion on when to use php_value, php_admin_value, php_flag and php_admin_flag. So I'll see if we can clear some of that. He compar...

Dave Marshall's Blog: How I'm designing a RESTful(ish) web service22 February 2012, 3:13 pm
Dave Marshall is in the process of building a "RESTish" web service and has shared some of his planning steps in a new post to his blog. This post is going to describe how I've ending up designing, what I consider to be a fairly RESTful web API. I'm far from being an expert, and this is definitely the closest thing to a RESTful API that I've ever created, so I'm not even experienced with REST APIs. [...] Until about 6 months ago, I'd always been sceptical of creating RESTful APIs, but I t...

Community News: The Great Web Framework Shootout21 February 2012, 5:03 pm
Seth Davis has put together a github repository with some benchmarking for some of the most common web frameworks - both PHP and not. His statistic is "requests per second" in a few scenarios: a "hello world" string test, a test with a database connection and one with a templated response. It should also be noted that my goal here was not necessarily to figure out how fast each framework could perform at its most optimized configuration (although built-in caching and other performance twe...
Marcelo Gornstein's Blog: Sniffing in PHP using libpcap: Thank you SWIG!21 February 2012, 4:13 pm
Marcelo Gornstein has posted a new article showing how to use SWIG and libpcap to sniff packets from the network directly from his PHP application. I've been wanting to try SWIG for a long time, but never got the chance, for one thing or the other. So this weekend I've finally decided to give it a try by trying to create a php extension that access a small C++ wrapper for libpcap, so I can sniff packets directly from PHP. Just for fun (and actually because I couldn't find any active pecl ...

Voices of the ElePHPant: Interview with Matthew Weier O'Phinney21 February 2012, 2:38 pm
On the Voices of the ElePHPant podcast today Cal Evans has posted the latest interview with a member of the PHP community. This time it's Matthew Weier O'Phinney, lead on the Zend Framework project. Cal's "three questions" for Matthew were: Since Zend Framework is the opposite of the ideals behind the Micro PHP Manifesto, what are your thoughts on it? Zend Framework 2 is close but not done - should a new project go with v1 or v2? What's your local user group and it's URL (hint: there...
