Rob Allen's Blog: New Zend_Auth tutorial
Mon, 26 Jul 2010 09:06:01 -0500
Rob Allen has a new post to his blog today about the update he's made to his Zend_Auth tutorial, introducing the authentication component of the Zend Framework. After too many months of neglect, I have completely rewritten my Zend_Auth tutorial so that it is compatible with Zend Framework 1.10! As an experiment, I have written it directly in HTML, rather than PDF as before and cover the login form along with the login controller code required to authenticate a user using a database table. For good measure, I've included logging out and a view helper to show how to access the logged in user's details. The tutorial walks you through the creation of a users table, an auth controller/form and the code needed to validate the user against in information in the table (as well as how to log them out). You can also download the code as a zip file.

John Hamelink's Blog: Top codeigniter libraries I can't live without.
Mon, 26 Jul 2010 14:12:28 -0500
In a new post to his blog John Hamelink lists top CodeIgniter libraries he couldn't live without in his framework development. CodeIgniter is a great framework. I use it exclusively because of it's flexibility and relative 'lightness' but what use is a framework without libraries to extend its usefulness? (well, not much use, naturally.) Here is my personal list of CodeIgniter libraries I would struggle to live without. His list includes: QuickAuth R&OS PDF Class Curl library Paypal Lib

Mon, 26 Jul 2010 15:29:56 -0500
On the Zend Developer Zone today Ralph Schindler has posted the results of the latest Zend Framework Bug Hunt Days (for July 2010). Zend Framework has recently wrapped up it's July 2010 Bug Hunt with some fantastic results. Collectively, we closed 50 issues in 3 days. That's nearly twice what we have seen in recent months- a trend we hope continues into the coming months! Top bug hunters this month were Dolf Schimmel and Ramon Henrique Ornelas tying with 14 bugs each with Michelangelo van Dam coming in third. The fixes in this bug hunt that have been merged into the 1.10 release branch will see the light of day in our next scheduled mini release 1.10.7 during the week of July 26th.

Rails3 Finders - OR conditions
Sun, 25 Jul 2010 16:20:12 UT
There just does not seem to be much information out their on Rails3 finders. The finders and chaining are basically "awesome", at least if you are doing Model.where().where() which generates AND conditions. Can't find much on OR condition examples, except putting the "or" conditions in text in the where arguments.
