Recently, a potential client asked us if we could recommend a viable open source document management system (DMS) for their needs. Despite our deep experience with Open Source business solutions, I didn’t have one to recommend. I think that is primarily because so few businesses have need for a true DMS - even [...]

When Andi Gutmans was interviewed by Marcus Whitney on the phpArchitect Pro::PHP Podcast, he stated that there would be some sort of preview release for the Zend Framework sometime in February. It is now March and there was no release that I can find. This is a big disappointment for me. PHP5 is an [...]

Today I came across a problem where I needed to find all of the threads in a forum, along with the first post and last post information. The easy (but inefficient) way is to find all of the initial posts, and then based on that result set, find all of the replies for each [...]

Zend is planning to release a pre-release of the highly anticipated Zend Framework sometime in February. From what I heard Andi say on the Pro::PHP Podcast at some point there will be CVS access to the Zend Framework project (read-only I am sure).

We all know this ‘web thing’ is just a fad that will soon pass… but until it does, it looks like AJAX will continue to increase in popularity.
