Wan Qi Chen has returned with the next three parts in his "Background jobs with PHP and resque" series (first parts here) with parts four, five and six helping you implement the concepts from the first three parts.

• Background jobs with php and resque: part 4, managing worker
• Background jobs with php and resque: part 5, creating jobs
• Background jobs with php and resque: part 6, integration into CakePHP

That sixth part of the series uses the CakeRisque plugin to make the integration simpler. Save that, you could integrate this setup pretty easily into whatever framework you choose.

In a new post to the his blog today, Stefan Mischook takes a look at what some of the most common components of a PHP web application include.

Understanding PHP theoretically, is only the beginning of actually truly knowing it. Once you sit down and start writing code, things will seem to magically clear up as you go along.

He gives examples of web application types and talks a bit about databases, a "key part of most web applications".

Stefan Mischook has release three new parts of his "Building Objects in PHP" video series:

• Part 1 - This is a hands-on video where I hope the viewer will actually write code along with me. I want to stress that this video (like everything else on this site,) targets beginners .. not old PHP hacks.
• Part 2 - In this video, we actually use the object we created in Part 1, in our PHP page.
• Part 3 - In this video, I clarify a point I was trying to make in part 2. In a nutshell, I talk about why it makes sense to keep any page rendering code (HTML and CSS) out of your business logic classes.

Lots of other videos (on different topics too) are also posted on Stefan's website.
