Beware, FrOSCon ahead!
August 15, 2008 @ 08:44:49

Tobias Schlitt has posted about this year's FrOSCon conference happening August 23rd and 24th near Bonn.

One of the most amazing German OS events is right in front of the door. Since the organizers of the FrOSCon expect a massive ammount of visitors, they ask everyone kindly to register on their website. If you did not do so, yet, take your heels and do so!

He mentions some of the "PHP VIP" that'll be there including Marcus Boerger, Derick Rethans and Rasmus Lerdorf as well as the dedicated PHP track they'll have this year. You can find out more information about the conference from the PHP@FrOSCon website.

Developer Tutorials Blog:
Running background processes in PHP
July 18, 2008 @ 11:18:21

New on the Developer Tutorials blog today is this look at handling background processes from your PHP script:

You've checked and double checked the integrity of user input, and you're doing some serious processing. There's only one problem: it's too slow. There's a simple solution: forking your processing script, and running the code as a background process asynchronously. It can email your user when it's done: they'll wait. In this tutorial, I'll show you how to get started with background processes in PHP.

Akash gives examples of the three keys to background processes - starting the script via an exec, talking to the process by passing additional parameters and including code to monitor the state of the background process via something like a MySQL "sessions" table that the script writes to.

DevShed:
Keeping Track of Objects when Using Destructors in PHP 5
January 30, 2008 @ 11:19:00

Devshed continues their series looking at the use of destructors in PHP5 applications with part three, a method for keeping track of objects you've created during execution.

In this third part of the series, I'm going to show you how to retrieve some useful information about a specific object, including its properties and methods, prior to its being destroyed by the PHP parser via the implementation of a simple destructor.

Their new user class extracts the details about each of the objects right before they're destroyed via a call to get_object_vars and a loop to display the property and its value.

PHP-GTK Community Site:
Gataka the PHP-GTK IRC bot
January 28, 2008 @ 10:36:00

The admins over on the PHP-GTK Community site have announced a new resource PHP-GTK ircers can take advantage of - a new bot that hangs out in the #php-gtk channel over on the Freenode IRC network with an aim to be as helpful as possible.

The PHP-GTK.eu community site is now host to an IRC bot named Gataka (for "GTK"), helping users on the Freenode IRC channel for PHP-GTK, at irc://irc.freenode.net/php-gtk.

Currently is has an API interface (for PHP-GTK elements), user tracking and the ability to learn factoids. They're even starting to look for input regarding new features (log publication, in this case).

PHP 5.2 ajaxified
November 28, 2006 @ 16:16:02

On Dotvoid.com, there's a new post that reminds us of two of the more "ajaxified" features of the new releases of PHP 5 (like 5.2) - the JSON extension and the functionality to track file uploads.

These features aren't competing for the heavy weight title in the release notes. Still, having these implemented in PHP makes it a lot easier to develop modern, more responsive, web based applications.

You can get more info on the JSON extension here and an example of the file upload monitor in this entry on the Bitflux blog.

NeoSmart.net Forum:
New 0-day Vulnerability Found in phpBB
May 19, 2006 @ 06:45:59

According to this forum post on the NeoSmart message boards, there's a new "0-day vulnerability" that they've discovered in the phpBB message board system.

Our research team has discovered a new (aka 0-day) vulnerability in phpBB, that affects all existing versions (including the Olympus CVS as of May 18th, 2006).

This phpBB security vulnerability has been scaled at a threat level of 6/10; allowing normal members access to privileged and restricted-access content on a phpBB forum. The bug lies in the email notification system and can be used to track comments made on any hidden posts that were once user accessible.

Since this bug has just broken today, there's no response from phpBB as of yet with a patch, but expect it soon if this issue is as important as the post mentions.
