Christopher Kunz's Blog: PHPShield revisited

Thu, 22 May 2008 08:48:16 -0500

Christopher Kunz has gone back and revisited the PHPShield product that he'd looked at previously with data obscured to make potential customer think that it had nothing to do with either SourceGuardian or Inovica.

Checking up on it again, he was happily surprised with some of the results:

I asked him again today via private mail and his response was swift. The whois entries for phpshield.com now point to his person and we can expect additional information on the web site itself soon. I like it when things can be resolved like that and I actually think this is a chance for his product rather than a possible competition issue.

This helps to more clearly define the difference between the PHPShield and SourceGuarian products. You can find out more information about each product from their sites - PHPShield and SourceGuarian. Both are encoding packages to help protect and distribute your code.

Leendert Brouwer's Blog: PHP Beginners Tutorial Revisited

As referenced in this new blog post today, Leendert Brouwer has posted a rehacshing of a previous introductory tutorial for PHP to his site.

I recently found back a tutorial that I wrote somewhere in the year 2000. It was popular back then, and got a little outdated over time. I changed a bit here and there so it's up-to-date again (mainly superglobals stuff, back then it wasn't uncommon to have register_globals turned On..). Have fun reading it!

It's a good sized tutorial that covers a wide range of topics, including:

getting started
varaibles/datatypes
loops/operators
arrays
form handling
functions
some string manipulation
