As a part of the release of the new book from Manning Publishing, Zend Framework in Action, Rob Allen has created a new site to act as a companion and to host new Zend Framework-related articles - ZendFrameworkBook.com.

The intention is to highlight interesting things that I see on the Zend Framework mailing lists and also to talk about book stuff periodically as well.

A good bit of the content will be summarized from the Framework's mailing lists but will also include other articles/tutorials/updates on proposals/etc that are happening in that community.

The Zend Developer Zone has posted the final part of their excerpts from the Manning Publishing book "PHP in Action" today with part three of the Design Patterns chapter.

You know you've been waiting for it, here it is. The final installment of Chapter 7 of PHP in Action by Dagfinn Reiersol. Without further comment, here's the introduction to this section in Dagfinn's own words: "In this section we discuss an Iterator and a Composite."

Dagfinn briefly mentions what the two patterns are about - a "canned loop" and making tree structures easy. Check out the PDF for the remainder of the chapter.

On the Zend Developer Zone, there's a new post pointing to the second part of their look at the Manning Publishing book "PHP in Action".

If you've been anxiously awaiting part two of this series then your wait is over. Here's a short introduction to the section part of this series written by the author of the book, Dagfinn Reiersol. I had the privilege of meeting Dagfinn at phpuk last week. Below the introduction is the link I know you’ve been waiting for.

The new PDF they link to focus on two different patterns - the Decorator (a wrapper class) pattern and the Null Object (an object that works like the others but does nothing behind the scenes) pattern.
