PHP Documentation Generators

I've been looking at documentation generators recently. Specifically, I'm playing with a new website that I want to do Right. Here are some notes for anyone looking at PHP documentation generators.

Wikka Wiki Bread Crumbs

Dan decided he wanted to set up a wiki to build content. I wasn't involved in the process, but I got the job of making a bread crumbs script for the site.

Cross Site Scripting With Ajax And PHP

Recently I had the challenge of writing a file browser for our content server at work. The gist was that we'd store our content includes, image, javascript, and css files on a different server than our live HTML. Without getting into the guts of the system, a template would be created and the guts (images, JS, CSS, content, and form) would be stuck into the template when it was written to the live server. I won't debate the practicality at this point, as it has it's merits and defects. The point is we have a content server.

mod_rewrite example

At work, we started using a redirect method with mod_rewrite that allowed us to send all file requests to a file called _process_me.php. This gave us tons of flexibility, allowing us to even make pages on the fly. If you can't imagine why anyone would do this, imagine serving a page that doesn't exist, assembled completely on the fly, without the user knowing. If you don't get it yet, press ALT+F4 or COMMAND-Q right now for more information.

Web Site Crawler And Slowness

I'm working on a web site crawler in PHP. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I already kinda wrote one. This one is better. The first was meant to only index my site and maybe a few others. I'm going to attempt to make this one a lot cooler. I've already got some path checking stuff so it crawls properly. This one uses fsockopen instead of fopen, as well. That way I can make HTTP custom headers. The crawler will download the site (archive to disk), validate certain types, or index it (which should eventually "figure out" what the page is about).

Slow Day

I spent the day watching TV. And doing a little work. I decided to write an error reporting system. I was just using die. But it only alerts the user. So, I wrote a "replacement". Instead of just alerting the user of the error and stopping, it also sends me an e-mail with a bunch of info to help me debug. That's good.
