I've been playing with it for about 4-5 months now, using it mostly to talk to a MySQL server. As of recent, I've started using the MySQL C++ API to write some programs that PHP will interface with to do stuff scheduled by cron. In the past few days however, I've started working on using PHP with LDAP to create some sort of organization for music at home and also using PHP to create an online calendaring system that will use iCal/vCal, etc etc. The best place for support, by far, is the PHP mailing list. I've been subscribed to it for about 2-3 months and have well over 6000 messages from it (over 4000 in this last month I've been on it). You can usually get a reply from someone on it in not too long, and the authors of some of the PHP books post snippets on there (even though some are totally irrelevant ). The actual authors of PHP post on there (at least one of them) rather often, and there is one guy that will, 90% of the time, reply to every post that comes across. The nice thing about the list is that it is archived...back to 97 I want to say. Chances are that if you have a problem with something, you can search the archives and find a number of solutions. There are a couple of sites out there...php.net (obviously ), phpbuilder.com (pretty good), phpwizard.com...all accessible from php.net Mark Peoples - gascsd@gascairlines.com -----Original Message----- From: Mike Sheldon [mailto:msheldon@desertraven.com] Sent: Wednesday, March 01, 2000 1:16 PM To: plug-discuss@lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us Subject: PHP I'm curious, how many people here develop Web applications using PHP? I've been doing a bit of development with it, and find it to be quite mature and reasonably powerful. However, resources for PHP programmers are still pretty sparse in the way of newsgroups, user groups, etc... Michael J.
