If you weren't able to make it to yesterday's webinar from Zend and the Dojo group about their partnership, Matthew Weier O'Phinney is ready to hook you up with all of the details they presented.

We had our Zend Framework/Dojo integration QA today. Aside from some connectivity issues at the beginning of the presentation, things went smoothly, and there were some good questions.

He's made the slides both available for download directly and as a slideshow on Slideshare. He doesn't mention when the recording of the webinar will be out, but it shouldn't be too far off.

Joshua Eichorn's Blog: Cool Things in PHP5 azPHP Slides

Wed, 25 Jul 2007 13:28:50 -0500

Joshua Eichorn points out the slides that he worked up for the benefits of upgrading from PHP4 to PHP5 for your applications:

Yesterday at azPhp I gave a short presentation about the benefits of upgrading to PHP 5. The slides for cool things in php 5 are available. If you goto the single page view you can see the notes that go with the presentation, there are article links for most items giving more details.

The talk is broken up into sections - better object oriented support, better xml handling, simpler web service functionality, database libraries, user code that can work more like the core constructs and, best of all, that it's faster.
