Can anyone recommend a wysiwyg web development software which is php
friendly, i.e. you can design the page in wysiwyg and insert php code into
the html without destroying the screen image preview. I've been using
Frontpage to compose the page then dev-php to insert the php code. This has
worked well but if layout changes need to be made Frontpage displays stuff
all over the place. Just trying MS Expression but this shows blank page when
any php code is present. Any ideas?

Have you tried Delphi for PHP?

So, mixing HTML and PHP code is a good choice when the PHP code is
only about how present the information.

If you are mixing your bussines logic and presentation you need learn
MVC layers.

At work, the other guys use Dreamweaver to edit HTML and PHP, and it
works well for them. Myself, I do everything with a text editor anyways,
even C# and C++!

I tried to help a guy out yesterday, and his silly code completion thingie 
ended up writing bogus HTML as I typed...



I don't NEED code completion, thank you very much, I know what I'm doing, so 
get out of my way!



:-p



(I've tried them all, and end up in 'vi' almost always.)

Ah but I do, there's a neat little plugin for KATE that completes your
code based on what you've typed before in the same document, which stops
me making a typo when I;m entering variable names!

Well I work on a lot of various projects.  Some procedural, some oop.
Lots written by different developers too.  It saves me time not having
to remember where things are, what they'renamed, parameter orders,
etc.  Being able to also click on a function and open its source file
without worrying about paths saves a lot of time too.

str_replace will take arrays for "before" and "after" sequences.



So, build arrays, and do ONE str_replace and Bob's your uncle.



Another option, a bit crude, but effective, would be to wrap your template-y 
bit in a function that calls 'extract' on an array of variable names.



class Template_thingie {



private $vars = array();



public function template_register_variable($varname){

  $vars[] = $varname;

}



function template_render_whatsit(){

  extract($vars);

  include("some_file_$foo_here.php");

}

(all praise W3.org!)



I am searching for a PHP library function that will convert all my &abc; into

I have a zillion of these things from converting stupid MS Word characters into 
something that will, like, you know, actually WORK on the Internet, and do not 
really want to re-invent the wheel here.



Somebody has to have written this function...



I'm kind of surprised it's not http://php.net/xmlentities or somesuch...

Here's what I use:

I already had a function to go from weird MS-Word characters to HTML Entities, 
which I was putting into the DB as such.



In retrospect, that function should have been called at output... Actually, I 
knew it should have, but convincing my co-workers was the proverbial brick 
wall, so I cheated and did it on data import and now I'm paying for it...



I ended up just copy-pasting the entity/number table from here:

http://www.w3schools.com/tags/ref_entities.asp

and go through a 2-step process:



RAW DATA (pasted from Word in unknown code-page/charset/encoding)

HTML Name Entities

HTML Numeric Entities



This seemed to make the W3.org RSS validator "happy"



It still looks goofy in the browser, but that's the problem of the users 
putting in this goofy stuff in the first place, so I'm shoving it back into 
their laps.



My RSS feed validates, and the content within it not being "right" is the 
problem of the content creators. :-)



[soapbox "on"]

I'm pretty tired of dealing with this charset/codepage stuff, personally, after 
years of frustrating experiences, none ending in a real "solution"



If anybody has a petition to abolish everything except for UTF-32, sign me up! 
:-v



UTF-32 is the biggest, right? The one that has ALL characters anybody needs?...



Hey, I don't care, UTF-64 or UTF-128 is fine by me too. Disk space is cheap.



Just stop the insanity of endless incompatible irreversible calculations to 
substitute a bunch of numeric codes for characters, and make it socially 
unacceptable to use anything other than the one true encoding.



I'm sure somebody somewhere actually enjoys dealing with this [bleep], but I'm 
betting the majority are quite tired of it.

[/soapbox]

I came across a similar problem using an AJAX thing, with MSWord
characters in the text. The way round the problem was to enclose
everything inside CDATA blocks, which made the browsers happy to receive
as the entities only had to be understood by the HTML browser now, not
the XML parser. As RSS is an XML format, maybe this would help you?

I suspect not.



The RSS+XML standard[1] seems to be quite finicky, and wrapping in CDATA block, 
from what I've read, will simply make some readers/aggregators decide to not 
carry the RSS feed at all.



I have no idea if "some" means "a handful" or "most" however.



But trying to maximize audience, I'm being conservative and using KISS 
principle until I know more.



[1]

Actually, it's 9 different incompatible standards, with no two published RSS 
standards being compatible:

I personally found this blog post "brilliant"

YMMV

You are correct. Some feed readers will just throw everything in a
<![CDATA[]]> block away. It can be useful when you are the only one
reading/manipulating the XML ... but getting it into a "universal" code
page is the way to go if aggregators are going to be touching your
content.
