Alright all of you contest lovers out there, it's time to get those skills working and get back into the fray. php-editors.com is back with their lastest contest posting, and it's a good one!

Here's the summary for Wacky Syntax: The object is to invent your own syntax that gets converted to standard PHP syntax. You should try and make it as different as possible from standard PHP. Your script will display a 'textarea' form input that acts as the scripting interface. You will have a manual or key to your invented syntax, available to this page (either linked or contained). You must provide 4 separate example scripts (invented syntax scripts) that can be used in your scripting interface. Example scripts (invented syntax scripts) should be stored in separate files named example_1.txt through example_4.txt. When an example is submitted through the scripting interface your script should return both the converted script (true PHP code) and the output of the example (true PHP code executed).

Quite a challenge on this one, but I'm sure there are coders and gurus out there that will take this one on. Some of the prizes include: a year's subscription to php|architect, a free domain name (1 yr), and a copy of the PHP IDE, Nusphere PHPEd. So get on over and get to coding!
