Joomla Community Site:
Creating a Joomla Template From Scratch
March 17, 2010 @ 13:10:45

On the Joomla community site there's a recent post made of a video from the Joomla Day conference in Australia about creating a Joomla template from scratch. The presenter is Norm Douglas.

Norm Douglas recently presented about how to create a Joomla template from scratch at the Joomla Day in Melbourne, Australia, on 13 February 2010. This is a very informative 77 minute presentation and also covers using the Firebug Firefox addon, code editors and much more.

He covers some simple tools you get you started, the basics of HTML to create a sample layout and looks at CSS definitions that can make the layout look a bit better. Firebug (the plugin for Firefox) helps make locating the different parts of the page easier with a highlighting feature.

ZendCasts.com:
Writing Composite Zend_Form Elements
March 15, 2010 @ 11:33:48

A recent tutorial (screencast) has been posted to the ZendCasts.com site looking at creating custom Zend_Form elements when you need something more than just the usual, simple elements.

This video should help you build your own composite Zend_Form element. We'll be building a phone element. The phone element will have 3 textboxes, one for geographic location, area code and local code. In the following videos will add a custom cell phone validator and some ajax validation.

You can grab a copy of the source if you'd like to follow along or you can just look around the repository to find the source for this and other great lessons from the site.

Brian Moon's Blog:
PHP command line progress bar
March 11, 2010 @ 10:23:41

Brian Moon has a quick post that links to a but of code that gives you a progress bar for the command line that's flexible enough to be used in an number of situations.

Was just looking through some code and came across this function I wrote some time ago. If you do a lot of your processing scripts in PHP like we do, you probably need to know what is going on sometimes. So, I made a progress bar for use on the cli. I thought I would share it.

You can see a demo of it here (screencast) or just download the code. Comments on the post also point out the PEAR Console_Progressbar package and the ez Components class for creating a more advanced progress bar.

February 23, 2010 @ 08:09:17

On NETTUTS.com there's a recent tutorial - the ninth part of the "CodeIgniter from Scratch" series - posted (by Burak Guzel) for all of the users of this popular framework out there. It looks at, starting from the very beginning, how to create an upload and image manipulation script for use in the framework.

In lesson nine of our CodeIgniter series, we'll build a small image gallery that allows you to upload files, and automatically create thumbnails

He links to the previous eight parts of the series if you need to catch up as well as the source code for this installment so you can follow along with the screencast. For those more on the go, you can also download the screencast and watch it whenever.

Logging in Users using Doctrine and Zend_Auth
January 27, 2010 @ 09:38:52

The next ZendCast in the user authentication with the Zend Framework's Zend_Auth has been posted to the ZendCasts.com site today. In this new screencast, they look at how to integrate it with Doctrine to automatically validate users against the information in your databases (following up on this first part of the series).

Here's the second part of my Doctrine / Zend_Auth example. In 15 minutes, we create a logout, login and protected area that's reliant on the ZC_Auth_Adapter adapter we created in last week's video. Notice how there's no code in the IndexController exposing the authentication implementation,

You can grab the code to follow along or build it as he goes. You'll need a copy of Doctrine up and working to keep up, though.

January 15, 2010 @ 09:57:16

New on the ZendCasts.com site is this recent screencast about the best approach for integration of the popular Doctrine ORM and the Zend Framework.

his video is my humble approach of combining some of the learning brought about over the last few weeks on Zendcasts, as well as suggestions from Doctrine developers. The goal of this video is to show how you leverage the existing resource loading tools in Zend to have a model structure that reflects Zend's best practices.

The code is provided if you'd like to follow along with this (about) twenty-five minute presentation.

NETTUTS.com CodeIgniter from Scratch Day 7:
Pagination
October 02, 2009 @ 07:51:40

On NETTUTS.com today they've posted part seven of their "CodeIgniter from Scratch" series of screencasts looking at building a CodeIgniter application from the ground up. This time the focus is on pagination.

In these last two weeks, I've received bunches of requests for a CodeIgniter pagination screencast; so that's what we'll be reviewing today! As a bonus, we'll also take a look at the super convenient HTML Table class.

They show how to use a local setup (MAMP) to set up a CodeIgniter instance that pulls the data in and splits it out into multiple pages. Their paginated data comes out of a MySQL database.
