Seperti saya tulis sebelumnya, PHPINFO() adalah tool ampuh buat programmer seperti kita yang menggunakan jasa shared hosting. Hanya saja kita perlu lebih hati-hati untuk tidak membiarkannya terbuka begitu saja untuk dibaca orang lain. Tool serupa yang bisa kita gunakan, khususnya pengguna jasa shared hosting adalah PHPSecInfo(). Tampilannya mirip dengan PHPINFO(), hanya saja informasi yang ditampilkan …

Ngintip PHPINFO()
Seperti saya tulis dalam posting sebelumnya, beberapa hari lalu tim pengembang PHP telah merilis PHP versi 5.2 yang merupakan versi paling stabil dari seri 5.x. Banyak perbaikan dan penyempurnaan yang dilakukan oleh mereka, termasuk dan terutama dari sisi security. Oleh karena itu sangat dianjurkan bagi pemakai PHP, khususnya penyedia jasa hosting, untuk mengupgrade PHP mereka …
ClientLogin Authentication for Zend GData
As i mentioned in my previous post, i was going to add AuthSub authentication for Ngeblog when people at Google Code team announced that Zend framework now has GData support.
After played around with it for hours, i finally got into a decision to use Zend Gdata for abstracting Ngeblog connection to Blogger. Unfortunately, Zend GData class library only supports AuthSub authentication, while Ngeblog already uses ClientLogin authentication and works fine this far.
So, to make it available for both type of authentication, i finally sat down and wrote some codes myself to add ClientLogin support for Zend GData. You can download the bundle in .zip here or in .tgz here which contains both Zend_Gdata bundle and my Zend_Gdata_ClientLogin class for ClientLogin authentication. Try getauthdemo.php
to see how my ClientLogin class works.
Moving to PHP 5.2
The PHP development team has announced the immediate release of PHP 5.2.0. This release is a major improvement in the 5.X series, which includes a large number of new features, bug fixes and security enhancements.
Further details about this release can be found in the release announcement 5.2.0, and the full list of changes is available in the ChangeLog PHP 5.
To me, one of the most important thing that come with this new release is the addition of input filtering extension which enabled by default. If you have no idea about this extension then you should take a look at this tutorial from Zend developer zone.
For many years, unlike any other languages, PHP did not have any standards functions to filter out data from external world (like cgi or perl). You’d likely have to write additional codes yourself to do this. So this input filter extension which for some time sit in PECL package surely makes our lives easier.
PHP Community Playing Cards
Thanks to Cal Evans, this playing cards is really useful especially when you need to go to the conference without any idea who are the folks behind you.
100 Million Web Sites was Reached by October 2006
Netcraft has announced that web sites passed significant milestone during last month: 100 million web sites!
100 million? That’s few. Surely there can’t be only 100 million web sites out there!
Hold on a minute, let’s take a closer look at what Netcraft considers a web site:
“There are now 100 million Web sites with domain names and content on them,” said Netcraft’s Rich Miller.
Yeah, that we all can agree. What it means that any domain name without content in it doesn’t count as a web site. That includes registrar parking pages, Google ad farms, and the like.
Also any blogger which hosted on blogspot.com or wordpress.com are counted as one, although there are actually many of them.
What interesting to me is the raising curve of new web sites during the past three years,
There were just 18,000 Web sites when Netcraft, based in Bath, England, began keeping track in August of 1995. It took until May of 2004 to reach the 50 million milestone; then only 30 more months to hit 100 million, late in the month of October 2006.
That could only mean one thing, it’s much easier to create a Web site nowadays. And blog is one of the web app which responsible for that.
Zend Google data API

PHP Programming Innovation Award
I received an email from PHPClasses.org this evening,
This is a notification message to let you know that your package Ngeblog was nominated to the PHP Programming Innovation Award among all the classes approved for publishing in the PHP Classes site during the month of October of 2006.
The class was nominated by Manuel Lemos that submitted the following comment:
“Blogger is a very popular blog Web site owned by Google. Nowadays it provides a Web services API named GData API. It makes possible to manipulate articles posted in Blogger blog from an external site. This class makes use of the GData API to manipulate Blogger posts from any PHP Web site.”
Well, when i started this project about two weeks ago, i never planned it to be nominated to any award. Like any other open source projects, it all just started with “i wanna do this, and i wanna do it now” motivation.
But then i looked at the prize and i thought why not. 🙂
So please be kind to vote it for me.
