Recipe: Confit de Canard
Posted on June 17th, 2010 No commentsImage sourced from: roboppy on flickr under CC-by-nc-nd 2.0 license. A good confit de canard (duck confit) is hard to get hold of in England, but luckily as my parents live in the Dordogne region they sometimes bring over a tin. A confit de canard is duck legs that are kept in tins, covered in it’s own fat.

Apache Live Log (ALiveLog)
Posted on March 7th, 2010 No commentsA really useful tool for providing simple stylised views of apache webserver log files via the browser. Ideal for providing a level of log file monitoring/analysis to novice web developers or website owners who don't want or need to see the raw log file text, but might need to keep occasional tabs on how the webserver is behaving as part of a bigger website control panel style app.

Posted on January 31st, 2010 No commentsI haven’t done a “personal” update for some time now, so I thought I’d briefly brush over our recent lives. The photo you can see on the left is the current state of our new house that is being built in the new Dickens Quarter development in Portsmouth

Importance of User Agents
Posted on December 9th, 2009 No commentsWhen you write something that connects to a web server, what user agent do you use? Far too often have I seen things like: curl_setopt ( $c , CURLOPT_USERAGENT , "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.01; Windows NT 5.0)" ) ; In my opinion you should always use a nice descriptive user agent that explains to the server exactly what your client may be trying to achieve, or at least a unique identifier

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!
