While digging through some old code put together by a former co-worker who's talents I looked up to I noticed after every query they closed the connection the MySQL server. This seems a bit odd since I've always just closed it at the end of the page and seen most people do the same. So the question is, is this the best idea in PHP/MySQ...

It's full of procedural spaghetti code which mixes SQL, PHP and HTML altogether, often on the same line. As you can imagine, it can get very difficult to follow and understand. I would like to integrate a mature framework in order to mak...

I've also asked the web hosts, but apparently the server is working normally. Does anyone have any suggestions about what could cause a web pag...
I am working on a custom PHP/MySQL CMS. The data managed in the CMS is exported to XML files via a PHP script that must be ran manually. A Flash/AS3-based front-end loads the XML files and displays the specified data. Is it advisable to setup some sort of automated process for creating the XML files? What are some "best-practices" or r...

Hello, As a way to build a poor-man's watchdog and make sure an application is restarted in case it crashes (until I figure out why), I need to write a PHP CLI script that will be run by cron every 5mn to check whether the process is still running.
