Well, for all those MySQL fans out there, check out the latest and greatest release - MySQL 4.0! They have revamped severl things and added several cool features, including secure connections, an embedded SQL server library (for embeding), and more speed! So, what are you waiting for? Go get MySQL alpha 4.0.0!

Also today, (thanks to SpiderMan for the link) PHPBuilder has a new article that tells all about making forms object oriented. For those that haven't messed with object-oriented programming before, you're missing out. They talk here about making a "FormProcessor" class that does fun, generic things to the input that it's given. I've had to do a lot of this same kind of thing with a recient project I've been working on, and trust me, it can save you a lot of work.

And, finally, that ever vigilent provider of info, arts, has given up some new links for your enjoyment. First off, there's an article on the eDevCafe about PHP Filehandling and a basic intro to it. This is a great one for those out there that are still new to working with files in PHP. Also, the other link is to let you know about the latest release of PHP Accelerator v1.1. There are several new features in this release, including more php.ini config options and some config options for Apache too. Enjoy!
