[PHP] Which workstation????
hi guys i really confuse by choosing the best work station for php ( cakephp , smarty , net bean , ... ) , please give me some advisdes. and please tell why which one is better, tnx best regards farzan
Re: [PHP] Which workstation????
Hi, Farzan I do not really get your point of confusion ... What you've posted here are tools/frameworks that do not to the same stuff at all, yes you could even use all without missing something ... cakephp .. is a full-stack PHP-Framework. Yes, I have to say that there's quite a bunch of full-stack frameworks in PHP you could choose and I myself would recommend one by knowing how much experience you have in PHP :) smarty .. is a template-engine for PHP. If you want to use smarty, twig, php itself or another library as template-engine is up to you. Using a template-engine for some programmers I know just feel like a better separation between the view and the controler/model (search for ModelViewControler if you don't know what I mean here). netbeans .. is an IDE where you can develop with. I prefer to use PhpStorm, others use EclipsePDT, Notepad++ or even the basic editor of windows. This is just about syntax-highlight, code-completion and other things helping you to develop your code. Hope that helps :) Bye Simon On Tue, Jun 5, 2012 at 2:10 PM, Farzan Dalaee farzan.dal...@gmail.comwrote: hi guys i really confuse by choosing the best work station for php ( cakephp , smarty , net bean , ... ) , please give me some advisdes. and please tell why which one is better, tnx best regards farzan

A script goes out and searches Twitter for tweets that mention the jubilee, one instance per keyword and records those to a DB to limit the draw on the Twitter API 2. A second script goes over those tweets and pulls in all the non-default profile images for each unique user 3. Lastly, the image is built as 12 separate tiles every half hour, using PHP and GD to match the average colour of each profile pic to a spot on the image, and then these are stitched together for the final image Anyway, hope you guys all have a great weekend, more so if you're unlucky enough to be working over the whole 4 days :-/ -- Thanks, Ash http://www.ashleysheridan.co.uk Just saw it -- far out!

Hi All, I am a basic user of PHP and I have need of reading the dynamic HTML form field as a variable in PHP so it will be great if someone can share some good link or snip for quick understanding. Thanks, Devang http://lmgtfy.com/?q=how+to+pass+and+receive+a+PHP+variable When just starting out, Google is your friend. Or did I misunderstand your question? -Govinda Devang, Please keep replies on-list. Please post your replies at the bottom, past the older (snipped) content. Many here will be glad to help.. but you'll need to make your question more clear.. at least for me to be able to help anyway. First of all, what do you mean exactly, by, the dynamic form field in HTML? And by boxes do you mean form inputs of 'text' type? If so, then do you mean to suggest that input by the end user should determine the number of text inputs that should display in a second HTML form? Please spend more time describing what you are trying to do.. and also please show any code you attempt(ed) to accomplish this. If you are unable to write any code, then try pseudo code - meaning write in successive lines of prose what you want code to do, and post that here. -Govinda= I thought he meant previously generated array type fields, that use the same name. I've never done it myself, but I thought the method of handling this kind of input included placing a hidden field with the count on the form to be retriieved later and used in processing the dynamic fields in a loop. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
