Phundamentals

New York PHP has a nice series of PHP best practices called phundamentals. These are basically common questions that are posed to the NYPHP-Talk mailing list, and after a few weeks of discussion, all of the various perspectives and recommendations are compiled into a document and made available from the Web site.

I think this is a great approach for providing information, because multiple perspectives are always nice. There are already several articles, and with the recent launch of security-related phundamentals (that I am especially interested in, of course), I think this will become an important resource for PHP developers.

Style Guide

Line breaks are converted to paragraphs. Also use:

  • <a href="" title="">text</a>1
  • <em>text</em>
  • <blockquote><p>text</p></blockquote>
  • <code>2  <?php  if ($foo) {      $foo = TRUE;  }  ?></code>
  1. Note: <code> can be used inline (e.g. in paragraphs) or in a block as shown. Include whitespace and newlines in blocks.

Please enter Chris (my first name) below. This is a primitive spam prevention technique, and I apologize for the inconvenience.
