I'm pretty new to PHP, so if you have any thoughts or suggestions to point me in the right direction, I'd be grateful.

I've asked this somewhere else, but the people there don't seem to understand what I am talking about.
When I go to the PECL website, all extensions found there are inside TGZ files.
Which is not a problem, any modern archiving program can open it.
Inside is always a .tar file and inside that are the source files.
So, what do I do with...
PHP is my first programming language. I can't quite wrap my head around when to use static classes vs instantiated objects.
I realize that you can duplicate and clone objects. However in all of my time using php any object or function always ended up as a single return (array, string, int) value or void.
I understand concepts in books ...
I read some scripts and
I cannot understand why they put a class name in a constructor of other class:
public function __construct(AclassName $foo){
$this->foo=$foo;

I need to be able to store data for a php application in a file. I need to be able to do this without any sort of external dependencies other than PHP itself.
Here are the requirements I have:
Settings will not be updated/added/removed very often. So updating of settings does not have to be very efficient. However, I do want to be abl...
I'm trying to make a web app that will manage my Mercurial repositories for me.
I want it so that when I tell it to load repository X:
Connect to a MySQL server and make sure X exists.
Check if the user is allowed to access the repository.
If above is true, get the location of X from a mysql server.

Hello all,
I have recently found a hole in my SELECT statement for a private messaging system that I am developing.
Here's the basic structure of my table:

The page I am developing is the inbox, where all most recent messages are displaye...
Im trying to read an RSS feed from Flickr but it has some nodes which are not readable by Simple XML (media:thumbnail, author flickr:profile, ...)
How do I get round this?
Im trying to get the thumbnail by the way.
P.S. My head hurts when I look at the documentation for the DOM. So I'd like to avoid it as I dont want to learn.
...
This is a two part question; firstly, does anyone out there have some insight as to why PHP contract developers would be available at a much lower rate than their .NET counterparts (around a 30% premium for the Microsoft guys)? I have some theories relating to ease of learning and cost of tools and servers but would like to get some feed...
I have a list of questions in a table, some of which are only to be displayed if certain criteria are met. A record might have criteria as simple as 4002=Y where 4002 is the question number and Y is the answer. If 4002=Y then the question is to be displayed.
For records with only one criteria I have no problem.
But then there are reco...
My setup is as follows:
Table 'data': 'title','body',...,'user_id',...
Table 'users': 'user_id','some_val'...
Basically I want to somehow join the tables 'data' and 'users' on the user_id field so that I can pull 'some_val' from the 'users' table. My problem is that not every user_id in the 'data' table has a corresponding entry in...
I'm tinkering with a domain name finder and want to favour those words which are easy to pronounce.
Example: nameoic.com (bad) versus namelet.com (good).
Was thinking something to do with soundex may be appropriate but it doesn't look like I can use them to produce some sort of comparative score.
PHP code for the win.

I have a PHP script that creates a thumbnail and lists an image gallery. The problem I'm having is that it lists it by timestamp on the server but I want it to list 'naturally'.

$max_height = 100;
$per_page = 24;
$page = $_GET['page'];
$has_previous = false;

I am using php/codeigniter, and typically to loop over query results I would do something like this:
<?php foreach($data as $row):?>
//html goes here
<?php endforeach;?>
But, say I have another object array, $data2, with the same number of objects as $data: is there any valid php syntax that would allow me to simultaneously access "ro...
Is there any standard method of accessing the database in the bootstrap.php file with CakePHP?
Specifically I want to set "putenv()" to a time zone that's stored in the database. Is there another way of achieving the same thing that I should be using instead?
Thanks.

I have a reasonably large number of variables encoded in the form:
foo=bar&spam[eggs]=delicious&...
These are all in a single string (eg, $data = "foo=bar&spam[eggs]=delicious&..."). The variables are arbitrarily deeply nested -- easily four or five levels deep ("spam[eggs][bloody][vikings]=loud").
Is there an easy, reliable way to ...
