Are there any more generic tools that can "compile" or basically merge multiple PHP files into a single file based on includes and autoloading classes? I'm thinking of something similar to Doctrine's compiling functionality or the compiling that many of the major JS frameworks do for "production" sites to lighten the file size and improv...
I am hosting a WCF service in a Windows Service on one of our servers. After making it work in basicHttpBinding and building a test client in .NET (which finally worked) I went along and try to access it from PHP using the SoapClient class. The final consumer will be a PHP site so I need to make it consumable in PHP. I got stumped when ...
So I build an array of various dates. Birthdays, anniversaries, and holidays. I'd like to order the array by which one is happening next, essentially sort October to September (wrapping to next year) so if my array is $a = ([0]=>"1980-04-14", [1]=>"2007-06-08", [2]=>"2008-12-25", [3]=>"1978-11-03") I'd like to sort it so it is ar...

I'm having trouble with my php code not indenting correctly...

If I'm deep in a nest of loops I'm wondering which of these is more efficient: if (!isset($array[$key])) $array[$key] = $val; or $array[$key] = $val; The second form is much more desirable as far as readable code goes. In reality the names are longer and the array is multidimensional. So the first form ends up looking pretty gnarly...
Ok, I'm using the term "Progressive Enhancement" kind of loosely here but basically I have a Flash-based website that supports deep linking and loads content dynamically - what I'd like to do is provide alternate content (text) for those either not having Flash and for search engine bots. So, for a user with flash they would navigate to:...
