I ask this question because i learned that in programming and designing, you must have a good reason for decisions. I am php learner and i am at a crossroad here, i am using simple incrementation to try to get what im askin across. I am certainly not here to start a debate about the pros/cons of pointers but when it comes to php, which is the better programming practice:
function increment(&$param) {
$param++;
}
Or
function increment($param){
return $param++;
}
$param = increment($param);

I'm writing a web application in which i use several thirdy party commands calling them with the exec function in PHP (for example, I render Latex formulas through a command-line program).
My question is: what are the security issues of executing external command-line programs in php? What I have to be aware of? Can you give me a list of points to check?
Thanks in advance.
I'm fixing some PHP scripts and I'm missing ruby's pretty printer. i.e.
require 'pp'
arr = {:one => 1}
pp arr
will output {:one = 1}. This even works with fairly complex objects and makes digging into an unknown script much easier. Is there some way to duplicate this functionality in PHP?
My PHP code has stopped working on my computer. It was working okay, running under XAMPP server. I was testing Python code and installed PostgreSQL and changed my computer environment for PYTHONPATH - would this affect my PHP coding?
How do guys suggest to share a constants file between PHP and JavaScript, in order not to repeat code? XML file? I am assuming mixing up javascipt inside PHP would not be the right solution!? Thanks

I need some PHP classes that deal with image processing in a good manner. I have made a thumbnail creator myself but the end result quality is just horrible.
Is it also possible to let PHP convert and save all images to one type. For example take an image(jpg,png,gif), compress it, resize it, and save as png.
Can anyone recommend some good classes for this.

Using PHP I'd like to compare an actual ip address to part of one, and see if it matches.
For example I want to see if the address matches 12.34..
<?php
$rem_address = getenv('REMOTE_ADDR');
$temp = substr ($rem_address,0,6)
if ($temp == "12.34.") echo "It's a match";
?>
Is there an easier/better way to do this?

I have been playing around recently with jqgrid and am at loss on how to implement search in my controller using PHP (Zend).
I came across a post that is quite similar to the answer am looking for but what I need is the PHP version not ASP.NET.
Hello,
I use the bellow code to load the main menu elements from some CMS, the present code is perfect except that it loads ALL the main items on a single line of menu - which will make the width of it unusable in any centered design (under 1000px).. I want to change this script so after 15 main elements will add a "MORE" button under which the rest of the main menu items will show as sub-items of this "MORE" button (they will not have their own sub-items as the first 15 do).. How can I do it?
Thanks!
