Re: [PHP] Open source project management tool - PHP

I used it for roughly 2 months before jumping ship. There was nothing wrong with it. I simply found a more suitable solution for my projects. I use Eventum for bug tracking. It's the system the MySQL development team use. It uses PHP and MySQL as standard. Took me under 15 minutes to set it up (after reading the manual). I didn't have any set- up problems. For source control, I recommend you consider implementing a continuous integration platform like cruise control for PHP. For team communications, the non-technical staff were significantly happier using Elgg (an open source social networking platform) over the Trac wiki and MoinMoin wiki. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Both shine in different ways. I use JQuery when I want to get things done quickly (using the Yii framework or on custom projects). I use mootols when I develop Joomla! Extensions and it's amazing. Which is more suitable boils down to what your project needs. I'm messing around with Ext at the moment and it's really nice too!

(and please don't say MSSQL). ~Philip MSSQL has nearly brought me to tears and could have easily made me bald through hair pulling! I have to say, I do like MySQL, it's very flexible and fast, and being able to choose different storage engines for different tables in the same DB is brilliant! I really don't think there's anything to overly worry about from Oracle, as the two DB's have different audiences. Thanks, Ash http://www.ashleysheridan.co.uk Unfortunately, I do not share your optimism. I believe that Oracle taking over MySQL would be a disaster of epic proportions. The different audiences theory has been bought up several times but I haven't [to date] seen a sound justification for it. Oracle wants everyone to use ... Oracle, I can't see how this different audiences theory is going to make Oracle promote MySQL, perhaps someone can tell me? I don't think the EU would be able to do anything about it. The powerful companies almost always get what they want. I don't think Monty wouldn't be doing this unless he felt that something [put mildly] bad is coming. What has happened, has happened. Trying to figure out who is to blame for this mess is pointless. Ideally, It would be nice if Oracle took its claws off MySQL and found another project to ruin.

Re: [PHP] Re: What method is best for generating thumbnails in PHP from PDF's?

What would you all recommend as an easy way to do this? Any help would be really appreciated. I think I would just call an external program to do it, like convert from Image Magick: exec(convert -thumbnail 300x300 document001.pdf[0] thumbnail001.png); If you're going to use ImageMagick, make sure you have the latest ghostscript library, otherwise not all thumbnails will render properly. I don't recommend CentOS for this task. If this is your server OS, I recommend considering this rpm: http://www.clearfield.com/ghostscript.8.64/ghostscript.html Good luck. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Wow! Here goes:
Open-bracket,
No, that's not an open bracket -- that's an open parenthesis or
paren for short.
An open bracket is [
An open curly brace is {
That depends on which edition of English you use. Take a look at the
definition of bracket in Wikipedia. What you call a parenthesis is
called a bracket in England and parts of Canada, as well as elsewhere.
They specify square bracket for the second one. I stumbled on this one
in another mailing list a few years ago.
Bracket... two syllables and ambiguous.
Round Brace... two syllables and not ambiguous.
For terse clarity use the following:
- round brace
- square brace
- curly brace
- angle brace
:)

Have you thought about using instant messaging? How about sending the
code to him via text message? Putting it on a pastie or on code pad?
IRC, sFTP, SSH, you see, in the 21st century, there exists a plethora of
solutions to circumvent this particular issue.
I would be interested in finding out how the OP ended up having
absolutely no option but to pass code to another Homo Sapien verbally?
Unless you managed to cripple your system and disconnect your company
from the internet, surely, it would have been faster (and easier) using
the methods above rather than trying to spell it out over the phone.
In any case, I would say:
Call the getServiceId method of the $item object and make that the
condition of a ternary opertor, if true, call the method again,
otherwise call the getId method of the $item object
I'm guessing the reason you were on the phone to him/her was because
your parentheses don't match ... but that's a different story I guess.
