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.

By Mike Dougherty, Post-Bulletin, Rochester, Minn.  Jun. 22--thingsthatwere.blogspot.com   I love old stuff, and this blog has scads of pix of old stuff that once was. Some of it is still around. Lots of it isn't or is in a serious state of disrepair. Pretty cool stuff. Check it out.

Greg Bever has a (very) quick post about his experiences with the Pixy XSS and SQLI Scanner running against PEAR files.   I tried out the Pixy XSS and SQLI Scanner (http://pixybox.seclab.tuwien.ac.at/pixy/index.php) on a few simple PEAR files.  On the first, I got a java exception, on the second it was unable to resolve the simplest of includes (no ability to resolve include_path). In short, the thing is useless for anything written using PEAR.  Fun!   The Pixy XSS and SQLI Scanner is made to find SQL and XSS injection issues in scripts. It runs as a Java application and scans PHP4 source code to try to find problems. For more information on the scanner or to try it out for yourself, check out the project's homepage for documentation and downloads.

Richard Heyes has made some updates to his PEAR::DB replacement class today, including:   Added numCols() function to the DB_result object Added seek() method to the DB_result object Enabled you to specify the fetchmode for getRow() and getAll() Made the test script easier to navigate Added reset() method to the DB_result object   You can find out more about the project here or just download this new version and check out the documentation to get you started.

In this new post to his blog, Tobias Schlitt shares some VIM tips with the PHP community, specifically about PHP Documentor integration functionality. He's gone back and documented the functionality now to make it that much easier to use.   Because I had a talk about how to use VIM in respect to PHP source code editing, I took the time during the week, to write some extensive documentation for PDV, the PHP Documentor plugin for VIM.   He's also documented the VIM file type plugin as well, and both are available through his SVN of PDV. There's also to updates mentioned - one about splitting up the .vimrc and file type plugin and added the repository to the official SVNServe list making it easy to check out.

Sam  posts an interesting proposal.  This is better than the HTTP delta suggestion but still has a few issues.  The client needs to know the ETags before it can start performing differential fetches.  With date ranges you still preserve the initial archive query.  For example when you first subscribe to a feed you could fetch 30 days worth of posts.  If you like the feed you can even fetch *older* posts which could be really cool.  Also even if you still use faster checksum algorithm like CRC32 or Adler32 you still have an O(N) performance hit for your document.  If you have a btree on your post dates you will gave O(log(N)) for search for a much smaller string (64bit in most situations).  F ...

Second place has been revealed in Nick Halstead's programming competition - and the 2nd place mark goes to Evan Chiu.   So second place, more drum rolls.. goes to Evan Chiu. Evan's solution revolved around a well implemented breadth first search which was wrapped up in a neat class. It was also quite well presented and the HTML was all w3c compliant.   In Evan's solution, he opted for a single "solve" method to handle the heart of the transition - an implementation of the "Breadth First Search method. If you'd like to see the full code, you can check it out here.

In a new post to his blog today, Danne Lundqvist shares his method for creating a blog aggregator (in the style of the planet-planet sites) to re-aggregate all of the feeds back ou tinto one.   Lately I have begun to get more and more annoyed with my feed reader. I use a simple feed reader which lack most features except for subscribing to and reading feeds. The one thing that annoys me the most is that it can't aggregate several feeds into one feed. Yesterday I finally decided to scratch that itch.   His method uses the Zend Framework to accomplish the goal - and "the whole website logic (both model and controller) is about 200 lines of code". There's no exception or error handling in it, but it works and the Zend_Feed module works well to grab just about any kind of feed.

In this new tutorial from DevShed, they demonstrate the use of a handy little bit of functionality to help keep your code (and markup) clean - Tidy.   Now that you know that the Tidy (X)HTML formatting/correcting application can be called directly from your own PHP 5 scripts, over the course of this series, which is comprised of three friendly tutorials, I'm going to walk you through using the bunch of useful functions included with this library.   This tutorial (part one) talks about the parsing of (X)HTML strings and using the tidy_clear_repair, tidy_parse_file and tidy_repair_file functions to handle the cleanup of (X)HTML strings and files automatically.

Antoine Ughetto has quickly posted about an interesting combination - php_tidy and the Yahoo! YUI Treeview to easily make a nested, recursive list.   A rapid experimentation with php tidy and Yui treeview for rendering the DOM of a specific page. We user the tidy_parse_file() and a simple recursive function to display a treeview.   You can check out an example over on their demo page. Plug in your website of choice and get the resulting HTML stricture (all cleaned up) represented as a nice, ordered tree list.

As per suggestions contained in the FAQ: Herein lies a report of two identified and as-of-yet uncorrected security flaws in Scoop. &nbsp;Enough detail will be provided to assist admins in investigating and correcting the flaws, but it is the author's hope that the details of the flaws will be sufficiently obscured to prevent abuse by the undesirables. Executive summary: Through the exploitation of various unchecked privileged operations, attackers may be able to perform admin-level actions leading to data loss. &nbsp;Additionally, well-intentioned security measures combined with XSS vulnerabilities can be exercised to simulate admin-level action, resulting in data loss.
