PHP Articles and News
Etienne Kneuss has an excellent article explaining late static bindings, a prospective feature for PHP 6 (and possibly 5). If you have any interest in scope or context as it relates to inheritance, I highly recommend you check it out.
Also, while this one is a few months old, I still think it’s link-worthy: Ligaya Turmelle wrote an article illustrating the various types of SQL JOIN clauses in a very simple, easy-to-understand manner.
Elizabeth Marie Smith has been working on a new project recently to create a PHP 5-geared PECL extension to wrap the Win32 API as a nicer alternative to Winbinder.
Update: While Stijn Leenknegt isn’t the first person to suggest the “function-return-array” idea, I think it’s certainly been a popular suggestion and may even make it into PHP 6. It’s definitely a useful feature in JavaScript.
