Lookin’ Good: Two Practise ZCE Tests Passed
Posted on August 25th, 2009 No commentsAs some of you may know, back in March/April time, I started revising for my Zend PHP5 Certification, but that was pretty much put on hold when we had a baby… now I’m revising again and after having revised a couple of topics I retook the test. As you can see, I passed it “with flying colours” this time, but still have improvement to do with Streams and Design patterns… Comparing with my last test: 2 categories remained the same; Database access Web features) 4 categories improved; PHP 4/5 Differences (was FAIL) Security (was PASS) String Manipulation and Regular Expressions (was PASS) Functions (was PASS) 2 categories declined; Streams and Network Programming (was PASS) Design (was EXCELLENT) [eep - not so good that!] I think overall however, these statistics shouldn’t be examined too much – there are some questions I can guess and don’t demonstrate that I truly *know* some topics, so I’m going to cover off a few categories I don’t feel to confident on anyway – but then the practise tests are just indicators, and not meant to represent the final exam… we’ll see!

Filter Input, Escape Output
Posted on January 29th, 2009 No commentsI’m currently working on cleaning up the sanitisation and validation libraries in our homegrown framework at Netbasic here, and I was given an excerpt from the Php|architect’s Zend PHP 5 Certification Study Guide - the Security chapter. The summary section really outlines a key point you should always bear in mind when writing any PHP code… filter input, escape output . Filtering input is important, and it is recommended to do this using a “white list” approach - i.e.

MySQL 5.1 multiple tmpdirs and incorrect key file for table errors
Posted on January 22nd, 2009 No commentsWell I found out a few new things today... Firstly if you see an error similar to this: Incorrect key file for table '/tmp/#sql_913_4.MYI'; try to repair it It's likely you've got a dodgy query that is creating a temp table so big it's maxing out all your available temp filesystem space. Secondly if you try to get round this by throwing disk space at the issue then you'll come unstuck
