Speaking at php|tek

Thursday, January 8. 2009

I'm delighted (and somewhat stunned) to announce that I'll be speaking at php|tek in Chicago this May - you might also like to see the full timetable. This is one of the big events of the year and I was so desperate to attend that I gave the organisers a good choice of talks to choose from. The good news is, they accepted me. The slightly scary news is, I'll be giving three sessions!
  • Practical SVN for PHP Developers - a half-day tutorial session I'll be delivering jointly with Matthew Weier O'Phinney, Zend Framework's Chief Architect, fellow subversion nut, and good friend

  • Linux-Fu for PHP Developers - tour of the command line tools I use

  • A Guide to Using and Understanding the Community - another joint session, this time with my colleague and friend Stefan Koopmanschap


If I survive that lot and the accompanying partying networking then I'll be one happy girl. Wish me luck, and if you're going - I'll see you there :)

Hi Lorna Jane, Thanks for all this – the info on PHP and Soap on the Net is a total mess. Some choosing to to use nusoap.php – which now doesnt even exist anymore. Great work using this method I was up and running very quickly. However – this method only shows a call passing one paramet [...]

Thanks so much to everyone that has dropped in and said that this tip is working for them – I had to refer back to this myself the other day to remind me how to get around the FTP prompt!

This issue seems to happen when you move a DB from one machine to another as I did. The procedure you describe above should be put into MySQL documentation. You should put in a bug report to the MySQL people as their documentation needs to updated. And yes the PASSWORD parameter needs to be re [...]

This is a convenient way to upgrade, and is certainly a good thing for development / testing environments. On a busy site there might be a slim risk this technique could be problematic. Although the file system is updated in an atomic transaction, a web browser could still read from both the [...]
