The focus will be taking our "free" admin screens that work in Firefox and tweaking them up to work in IE 6 and 7. We will also start work on a windows installer. Location is in East Setauket, Long Island, though we welcome remote participation as well (except you don't get any free food). Anybody interested in participating should contact me off-list for more information. -- Kenneth Downs Secure Data Software, Inc. www.secdat.com www.andromeda-project.org 631-689-7200 Fax: 631-689-0527 cell: 631-379-0010 From greg.rundlett at gmail.com Tue Jan 20 12:54:47 2009 From: greg.rundlett at gmail.com (Greg Rundlett) Date: Tue, 20 Jan 2009 12:54:47 -0500 Subject: [Bostonphptalk] PHP - the whitepaper Message-ID: <5e2aaca40901200954n32f2ae02n5f85fb5e51c0cd03@mail.gmail.com> The Irish PHP User Group has released a whitepaper that explains/promotes PHP http://www.php.ie/index.php?option=com_content&task=section&id=1&Itemid=2 http://www.php.ie/Markup/Html/files/PHPWhitePaper.pdf -- Greg Rundlett Web Developer - Initiative in Innovative Computing http://iic.harvard.edu m. 978-764-4424 o. 978-225-8302 skype/aim/irc/twitter freephile http://profiles.aim.com/freephile -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I am very happy to announce that as of tonight, we have drafted all features that compose the original vision of Andromeda. We are now entering into debugging and documentation mode and are proceeding to Release 1. the docs are here: www.andromeda-project.org and the demo is at www.andromeda-project.org/demo the source of the demo is available here: https://andro.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/andro/apps/finance/application I sometimes like to call Andromeda the "un-framework" because it has little in common with other frameworks out there. Its primary goal is to eliminate as many tasks as possible through radical use of the D-R-Y principle at the database level. In other words, we allow you to specify huge amounts of security and application logic within the description of the database. This has ramifications for the entire cycle. Things like ORM and MVC seem way too complicated after you have built an app with Andromeda -- a seasoned Andromeda programmer wants to spec out the database and get straight to the presentation of custom pages, confidently knowing that the biz logic is all taken care of. If you want to find out more, look at the source directory listed above, you will see that there are only two files. The magic is in the 'finance.dd.yaml' file, the entire demo as you see it is generated out of that file. However, no automated system is ever going to handle every case, so Andromeda lets you freely and easily "escape the cage" at many levels. If you have to 'drink the coolaid' to use Andromeda, we would prefer it be only a teaspoon, not a jug. On a personal note, I'm looking forward to getting to Boston for this month's meeting. Hope to see some of you then. -- Kenneth Downs Secure Data Software, Inc. www.secdat.com www.andromeda-project.org 631-689-7200 Fax: 631-689-0527 cell: 631-379-0010 From ken at secdat.com Sat Jan 31 17:55:28 2009 From: ken at secdat.com (Kenneth Downs) Date: Sat, 31 Jan 2009 17:55:28 -0500 Subject: [Bostonphptalk] Extracting and replacing text in tags Message-ID: <4984D6E0.9020003@secdat.com> I'm going nuts here trying to extract PRE tags, look at their classes, and then call geshi.

Then, you can use relatively simple XPath queries to get the elements you want. I'm not smart enough to write more than the most basic regex queries. But, even I can write xpath queries to get the elements I'm looking for out of a document.
