Douglas Cliffton has a reminder for all of those in the New York area (or will be in the New York area) around June 14th about the New York PHP Conference and Expo that will be happening in midtown Manhattan.

If you are a PHP developer in the New York metropolitan area or are planning a trip there in mid-June, then consider attending the NYPHP Conference and Expo (NYPHPCon). Running from June 14-16 at the New Yorker Hotel (map) in midtown Manhattan, the conference features three days of sessions, tutorials, exhibits, and networking events.

Organized by the NYPHP Community and sponsored by many leading companies, the conference focuses on technical solutions and business strategy. You will have the opportunity to meet reps from Oracle, IBM and other top companies, network with fellow developers and business leaders, and have a look around Manhattan while you're at it.

He also has a note about the two days prior to the conference for the in-depth training on two tracks - Programmer and Designer. Early bird specials ended with the last of April, but you can still register online for the event - prices start at $395 USD and range all the way up to $1695 for the complete package.

Utah PHP Users Group - February Meeting, 02.16.06 @ 7pm

Thu, 16 Feb 2006 06:37:15 -0600

For the February 2006 meeting, they Utah PHP Users Group will be talking about Apache 404 handler scripts created in PHP.

Mac Newbold will present on PHP 404 handler scripts. Running PHP with Apache has some definite advantages. One that I use frequently is using a PHP script as the 404 document that apache uses when a page can't be found. You can use it for many things. PHP.net uses it to run a site search, to try and find the page you were looking for. You can use it to create "virtual" URLs, where one script handles requests for many different URLs and hands back dynamic content based on the page name. You can even combine it with things like GD to make dynamic images that are created on the fly for each URL.

The meeting is happening on the 16th at 7pm MST at the Linux Networx offices. You can RSVP and get a map to the location from their site...
