In this new blog post today, Christopher Jones mentions a few different things, but it's the PHP-related items that are of interest particularly.

The first is a brief mention of a new PHP book from Mladen Gogala titled "Easy Oracle PHP". Christopher notes that it is now available for order. Check out the book's website for more information on that.

The second mention in the post is of the merging of the code support for Oracle's NCLOB datatype into the latest PHP 5.2 version. For more information on this datatype, check out this entry in an Oracle manual.
