      <description><![CDATA[<p>
An interesting site has popped up in the PHP community during the last week - the <a href="http://www.phpsadness.com/">PHP Sadness site</a>, a listing of things that the author says "make him sad" about the PHP language.
</p>
<blockquote>
These are things in PHP which make me sad. They are real, objective issues which I have personally encountered in my normal day-to-day activites. Nothing on this site should be taken to be the view of my employer or is related to my employer in any way.
</blockquote>
<p>The page is split up into several different sections including:</p>
<ul>
<li>Lexer/Parser Issues
<li>Inconsistency
<li>Anti-functional Design
<li>Arbitrary Restrictions
</ul>
<p>
Each of the for most of the things on the list, he's linked to a page showing some example code of the complaint and how significant of an impact it could have on your code. He's also set up <a href="http://www.phpsadness.com/discuss">a discussion board</a> for those that want to talk about these issues further.
