PHP hooks - Drupal vs.The OthersHooks are useful and robust way of injecting functionality to an application when done right. But if it is implemented haphazardly then it can cause bugs and chaos. Take a look at a comparison of two PHP hook systems. read more | Developer Zone FireOrb PHP Tips and Tricks hooksDynamically creating multidimensional arrays in PHPI feel that Drupal and most other PHP frameworks have overly complicated or inadequate menu systems. Here I am going show how to dynamically create an hierarchical array and use element keys as a menu and routing system. read more | Developer Zone FireOrb PHP Tutorials arraysFireOrb is starting with "Firemite" for DrupalOne of the goals of the FireOrb Project is for php developers to be able to use their propietory and contributed modules coded for Drupal. This is where the FireOrb MIT Extractor comes into play. The extractor application code named "Firemite" will hijack calls to Drupal functions and route them to FireOrb. read more | Portals FireOrb FireOrb Developers Network NewsFireOrb LicenseFireOrb the name The name "FireOrb" is released under the Public Domain License and is not a trademark.

Now to get on with developing software rather than trying to become a rockstar. A new core Though the first version of FireOrb will be a release of a mirror of the previous GPLed CMS today I am going to start work on a new core. This will be a complete from scratch rewrite that will allow the use of present day modules and themes with minimal... read more | Announcements FireOrb FireOrb Developers Network PHP frameworksA little FireOrb ToDo listFireOrb did not meet the march release date and I refused to release it on April first for obvious reasons. But the work continues so here is a little to list. Now that the backend is totally seperate the next thing to do is to seperate the themes. The control panel will have its own theme uninfluenced by the frontend choice. This way the code becomes simpler and things like blocks and menus don't clutter the interface. The ideal would be to have the backend look like that of Joomla! CMS.... read more | Developer Zone FireOrbFireOrb Change LogThe following is a list of changes made to FireOrb and the builds: Build 0003 Started 2008-04-12 Removed the throttle module and anything that has to do with it. Having things disappear under load is just not an option. Backend templating is complete and in place. read more | Developer Zone FireOrbHouse cleaningGoing to make sure the next build is more complete by doing some house cleaning. This means the thousands of name changes, file moves and template work must be 80% complete before we move on. Dozens of instances of hardcoded HTML must also be pulled out and set into external files. This is necessary before installing i18n and making adjustments to it. So the next build release will be on Monday. We will try to keep on this schedule so that each Monday morning will see the latest changes... read more | Developer Zone FireOrbDrupals watchdog security risk is next on the hit listThe Drupal watchdog has been bugging me for years now. But today I have just had enough. It is a thing that just begs for a denial of service attack on the database server. It alos exposes one of the true weakness of Drupal code design. Putting everything in the database and making it dynamic "magic" impresses to the end user. That is until they get errors because their shared hosting environment can't handle the load. db_query("INSERT INTO {watchdog} (uid, type, message, severity, link,... read more | Developer Zone FireOrbFireOrb build 0002 - Backend templatesOkay, seperate backend and frontend theme system is done. This in not just a redirect to a new page template but an implementation of the complete theme for the backend. So now you can create a theme for the backend without interpolating the code for it into the frontends theme. Firered can be the frontend and as soon as you go to the new control panel you can choose a theme like Marvin. Blocks and regions are seperate so removing or moving theme is easy and does not conflict when changing... read more | Developer Zone FireOrb News |
