So it IS good that a stable and understood build of PHP is used as no one would gaurantee that later builds will not introduce problems - especially following a change of minor versions. I agree that stability is good, but at some point reality must enter the picture. Continuing to distribute an obsolete package that is no longer supported nor maintained is not good for anyone, least of all the users of those systems. First, the distribution must also include the obsolete documentation to match the versions it includes, since that is no longer available elsewhere and is difficult to identify when it does. In addition, newer features are assumed by many of the other tools, frameworks and applications that are used on or with those systems, none of which are likely to work with these old versions. In our case we require our hosting service to install 5.2.10, which costs us extra in both time and money. But several of the other third party components used with our applications assume the availability of features in that release. They simply won't work with older versions. That minimum is reviewed every time we consider adding new capabilities to our systems, which generally happens every other month. We already have developers looking forward to 5.3 and drooling over the possibilities. I'm just happy that we will finally rid ourselves of some of the magic features.

A fixed width is not easier for me. After years of being forced to use a command, light on dark, and one font, it's a relief to pick what I want. All my correspondence, email, notes, and coding is done in one font. The only time I change fonts is in final formal-presentations/publications and web sites. For me, consistency between me and the computer screen is paramount in all my writing, including coding. I don't want to see the same word presented differently based upon what application I'm using. As far as alignment of brackets and whatnot, I have absolutely no problem with the weird-ass style I use, which I use for ALL languages, namely: php/javascript whatever() { whatever; } and html whatever whatever /whatever and css .whatever { whatever: whatever; } and whatever else (i.e., actionscript, perl, c, c++, FB, and more than I want to remember). A tab is consistent regardless of the type of font you use. I could not imagine putting spaces in my code when tabs work exceedingly well.

True Source: $email = EOM This is a paragraph that has been indented and hard line-wrapped with something not unlike: http://php.net/wordwrap http://php.net/wordwrap and has had URLs embedded in ways to make sure ALL email clients will present at least ONE clickable link, even the dreaded AOL 4.0 Yes, I still have code that is hanging around from when AOL 4.0 was new. Sorry. EOM; So what would your nifty editor do with that? Indent it to match PHP indenting, and then add the whitespace of the actual message? I think that might work well, though lead to a lot of un-readable right-shifted long text lines instead of the ugly indentation. One think you could consider to avoid the ugliness is to put the heredoc into a one-use function or in an incldue file that doesn't have enough indenting for it to look ugly in the first place. :-) -- Some people have a gift link here.

Instead of placing the wrapped line right smach along the left edge, it indents the following lines under the first line. It is visually clear that there is no extra white space because the extra indent has a different background color. Like this (I used +'s to indicate a different background color, telling you this isn't whitespace in your code): if($something){ $variable = This text message goes on and on and ever on and and +++would run right off the edge of my screen but thankfully my editor +++is smart enough to wrap the lines in a way that also does not +++ruin the indentation.\n; } Now, I would wish for my editor to also indent multi-line strings in the same fashion. Essentially, the lines of $sql_ugly in my example above should be displayed in alignment with the indentation: if($something){ if($something_else){ $myID = intval($_GET['rowID']); $sql = ++SELECT ++ field1, ++ field2 ++FROM ++ mytable ++WHERE ++ rowID = $myID; } } I doubt Microsoft develops an editor that I could use on my Linux system for this...

[PHP] RE: What search algorithm does in_array() use?
BINGO! I just tried your array_flip() suggestion, Greg. Awesome! Thanks for the tip; I wouldn't have thought of that. Ken. -Original Message- From: Gregory Beaver [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, January 29, 2007 4:54 PM To: Ken Dozier Cc: php-general@lists.php.net Subject: Re: What search algorithm does in_array() use? Ken Dozier wrote: Does in_array() use a search algorithm (i.e., binary search), or does it check sequentially each element in the array? I am using in_array() within a while{} loop to check query results against an access-list array to produce a third array containing items that successfully passed the comparison test. Because the two starting arrays in the worst-case scenario can have 8,000 items each, the loop is timing out. Advice or alternative methods are appreciated. Code Sample: ?php function check_results($results, $access_list) { # Check for $results in array $access_list and # add matches to array $match. $result = false; $match = array(); while ($r = mysql_fetch_row($results)) { if ( in_array($r[0], $access_list) ) { $match[] = $r; } } if ( count($match) 0 ) { $result = $match; } return $result; } ? Hi Ken, Since arrays are hash tables in PHP, it would be far faster to use an associative array. How? $access_list = array_flip($access_list); then if (isset($access_list[$r[0]])) However, this sounds more like a design issue with the SQL that creates $results. You can do the in_array natively in SQL with WHERE otherthing IN (thing1, thing2,...) which would automatically filter out the non-matches in a far more efficient manner, perhaps increasing requests per second by an exponential factor. Of course, if $access_list is from external input (user input), you will need to escape the output, make sure you have the proper encoding, etc. so you can avoid SQL injection attacks and other nastiness, but that is another topic. If you are getting $access_list from another query, you could also try using a sub-query as in WHERE otherthing IN (SELECT ...) but this of course assumes you are are using MySQL = version 4.1. In any case, you are definitely going to want to revisit the design of your queries before even starting with reworking your PHP.
