Nice ZF, jQuery and Smarty combo

Thursday, June 19th, 2008

Today I noticed a nice, short example of the Zend Framework, jQuery and Smarty stack I’m using. It’s got a lot of niceties from each component in a very small space, perfect for showcasing each and how they can be integrated!... Read More

Extending Zend DB Table

Thursday, June 19th, 2008

For some time now I’ve been working on an administrative backend system. I quickly found the need to extend DB Table with more stuff than needed when I extended the Zend Framework, it’s mostly convenience functions designed to reduce repetitive code snippets.

Writing a CMS/Community with Smarty and the Zend Framework: Part 8

Wednesday, January 9th, 2008

The blog saga continues, we still don’t have any fancy Wordpress style filtering of the content. You know, creating these nice looking quotes and filtering potentially nasty html and stuff. Sure enough, TinyMCE has some function for allowing only certain tags and discarding others but I haven’t had time to look at that yet, I will though… Fancy filtering is not in the requirements for this project either however.
