Birth of the regex sandbox I decided today to do a proper blog post to explain my reasons for creating regex sandboxes. I don’t often write a lot of words on this blog partly because I’m not very good a making long meaningful sentences and partly because I think the point can often be made in less words. Hopefully this will be useful for someone writing filters

PHP version 5.4 will most likely include the PHP-FPM patch right in the core, which is great news for those of us who like to run PHP under the nginx web server. You may be asking, “What is PHP-FPM, and why should I care?” PHP-FPM is a patch for PHP core that handles the starting, stopping, and restarting of FastCGI processes as needed.

Find my Xdebug download wizard London, UK Monday, May 3rd 2010, 10:00 BST Installing Xdebug seems to be a problem for some users. The main trouble is for Windows users that don’t know which file to download. Over the past few days I’ve worked on a wizard that analyses phpinfo()’s output and for Windows users suggests: which file to download where to put the file which php.ini file to modify, and how For Unix users, it explains: which source tarball to download how to compile which php.ini file to modify, and how I hope this makes it a bit easier to get going with Xdebug
