Zend: Series of free online seminars on PHP
by Chris Cornutt September 26, 2008 @ 12:18:05
Zend has issued a press release about a new series of online training classes they will be offering.
Zend Technologies, The PHP Company, continues its series of free online seminars started in early 2007.The so-called "Webinars" are aimed at anyone interested in PHP - web developers, consultants, project managers and technical decision makers. Topics include PHP as well as specific solutions and the tools Zend offers for enterprise-use of this programming language.
You can get more information on the events from the Zend website but here's a few to give you an idea: "Zend Cargo and Present: Using PHP to Build a Mobile Internet Platform", "Get Rich Quick: Building Ajax-based RIAS with Zend Framework and Appcelerator" and "i5 - Application Lifecycle Management for the Enterprise".
All of the webinars are free and, if you miss a session and you want to catch up, you can always download it from their archive.

CSS Tricks: Create a Slick iPhone/Mobile Interface from any RSS Feed
by Chris Cornutt July 17, 2008 @ 10:22:55
On the CSS Tricks blog there's a recent article showing how to combine the jQuery Javascript library and the SimplePie PHP feed aggregator to create a iPhone/mobile interface to any RSS feed.
We are going to create a web page that is formatted specifically for the iPhone (but would presumably be good for other mobile devices as well). This web page will dynamically fill itself with content from any RSS feed that you give it. The interface is going to be built to be easy to use on a mobile device, with large "touchable" areas and nice (jQuery) animations that whisk you between articles.
They work through the process - five simple steps:
- Create the iPhone Environment
- Pull in the RSS Feed
- Creating the Front Page: Headlines Only
- Creating the Article Pages: jQuery Slider Style
- Adding Some Flair
All code and images needed are included (as well as a demo if you'd like to try it out).

Ryan Malesevich's Blog: WP Plugins WP-Wap, Make a WAP Version of Your Blog
by Chris Cornutt August 24, 2006 @ 19:01:26
Ryan Malesevich has posted another brief look at a WordPress plugin on his blog today - this time, it's WP-Wap, an additon to WordPress to help make a WAP version of the site.
I saw this on TechBuzz and thought it was really cool. WP-Wap is not a plugin per se, more like an addition to Wordpress, but it creates a completely WAP compatible version of your blog. Now I know not many people are going to be using a phone to read your blog, but what if there's that one person who's a little weird in the head that wants to do that. You can't exclude that person.
Thankfully, this plugin is just as easy to install as some of its siblings (slightly different, but still easy). Then, it does the rest of the work for you - making the WAP pages automatically.

Jim Plush's Blog: The Event Driven Mobile Application on Minimo
by Chris Cornutt June 02, 2006 @ 05:46:20
Jim Plush has an interesting post today (complete with a video) about a project he's worked up for sending messages to remote devices via a web connetion and a JSON encoded message.
I have my PDA resting on my laptop and on my laptop I have firefox open with a local PHP page. The PHP page has a couple checkboxes that when clicked and the submit button pressed will actually open up a socket connection to the IP address I specified in the text field above. The script then sends a JSON encoded event string of data. That string gets read in by a custom minimo/firefox extension I wrote that listens on a particular port for incoming connections, reads in any data sent then forwards that on to user land javascript. By user land javascript I mean javascript written on a regular webpage, not in the extension itself.
The video linked to in the post shows more clearly how this functionality works, and also includes a bit more detail on the whole process, including a graphical representation of how the entire process works. Ajax wasn't actually used to send the message in this particular application - it's all just made with regular sockets.
