This is mostly a maintenance release. Some new modules make their first apperance in this version. Support for Adobe PDF and FDF as well as XML and an initial Interbase module are now available. If you need any of these features, or if you see something in the ChangeLog that might apply to you, then upgrade. </p> <hr /> <h1> PHP/MySQL ... Two great things that go great together<br /> Combination wins Database of the Year Award at Web98 </h1> <p> <span class="newsdate">[22-Jun-1998]</span> "The substance of the Web is more and more residing in databases, and there are a variety of methods used to generate Web pages. This year, we selected a pair of "free software" tools that work together quite nicely as a platform for building dynamic content. The award is also a tribute to the Open Source initiative; both products are used, developed and supported by interlocking communities of people on the Net." </p> <hr /> <h1>PHP 3.0 Released</h1> <p> <span class="newsdate">[06-Jun-1998]</span> PHP 3.0 is finally here! After 10 months of development PHP Version 3.0 is ready for production environments. Coupled with the release of the final version of Apache-1.3.0 today, the combination provides an unbeatable web hosting platform suitable for both small and large web sites. </p> <p> PHP 3.0 is the latest evolution of the PHP/FI 2.0 language and it offers some dramatic enhancements. It is more than twice as fast, it uses less memory, it has a more consistent language implementation and a much wider set of expressions and language features than PHP/FI 2.0. An included conversion program will help you migrate your PHP 2 scripts to PHP 3. </p> <p> <a href="http://cvs.php.net/co.php/phpweb/Attic/release-3.0.txt?sa=1&login=2&r=1.2">Read the full anouncement</a>. </p> <hr /> <h1>PHP Meaning Vote</h1> <p> <span class="newsdate">[18-Apr-1998]</span> <strong>PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor</strong> was chosen as the official meaning of the PHP acronym with 53% of the votes. The possible options were PHP HTML|Hypermedia|Hypertext Preprocesor. </p> <hr /> <h1>New Look</h1> <p> <span class="newsdate">[23-Mar-1998]</span> The PHP site has been given a serious facelift recently. The design is courtesy of Colin Viebrock at Private World Communications.

The web site <a href="http://www.marspolarlander.com"> www.marspolarlander.com</a> is powered by a combination of PHP, MySQL and Perl scripts. <a href="http://www.netapp.com/tech_library/3071.html">There is an architecture description here</a>. This architecture document doesn't say very much about PHP other than the fact that PHP is used as the Web scripting language, but it has an interesting description of how they built a large scaleable system and it proves nicely that PHP is up to the task of being part of such a large-scale deployment. </p> <hr /> <h1>PHP 4.0 Beta 3 is out!</h1> <p> <span class="newsdate">[17-Nov-1999]</span> Three months after PHP 4.0 Beta 2 was released, Beta 3 is finally here. This release has a lot of changes, including a "pure" automake/libtool-based build system, Java support and lots of other stuff. All 4.0 beta users are encouraged to upgrade. </p> <hr /> <h1>LinuxWorld Editors' Choice Awards</h1> <p> <span class="newsdate">[31-Jul-1999]</span> PHP is a Finalist in the LinuxWorld Editors' Choice Awards to be presented on Aug.11 in San Jose, CA. PHP is up against QT from Troll Tech in the "Programming Library/Tools" category. </p> <hr /> <h1>PHP 4.0 Beta 1 is out!</h1> <p> <span class="newsdate">[23-Jul-1999]</span> The long awaited beta of the new generation of PHP is here. </p> <hr /> <h1>PHP Tutorials at O'Reilly Open Source Software Convention</h1> <p> <span class="newsdate">[02-Jul-1999]</span> Rasmus Lerdorf and Jim Winstead will be giving a pair of three-hour tutorials at <a href="http://conferences.oreilly.com/">O'Reilly's Open Source Software Convention</a> on August 21, 1999, in Monterey, California. </p> <hr /> <h1>PHP 3.0.11 has been released!</h1> <p> <span class="newsdate">[27-Jun-1999]</span> Hot on the heels of 3.0.10, along comes another release to fix a few problems on Windows and some Unix platforms. If 3.0.10 worked for you, there's probably no need to upgrade. 3.0.10 featured bug fixes, including the last of the fsockopen() and URL fopen() problems, we hope. The dbm database abstraction layer had the mode flag for dba_open() brought into line with dbm_open(), which means "w" will not create a non-existent database (use "c" instead). The documentation has also been moved into its own repository, and the generated HTML documentation is included in the tar.gz instead of the SGML source. For a more complete list of all of the changes, see the ChangeLog. </p> <hr /> <h1>PHP 3.0.9 has been released!</h1> <p> <span class="newsdate">[06-June-1999]</span> More bug fixes, including many in the OCI8 module, and an important fix for fgets() on socket connections. Also added support for PCRE (Perl-compatible Regular Expressions library), t1lib (PostScript Type-1 fonts with GD), and mhash. For a more complete list of all of the changes, see the ChangeLog. </p> <hr /> <h1>PHP Related Books are Available</h1> <p> <span class="newsdate">[12-May-1999]</span> Get ready for a wave of PHP related books to hit the shelves! We don't know exactly how many there are going to be yet, but two are already available. </p> <hr /> <h1>Zend has been announced</h3> <p> <span class="newsdate">[04-Jan-1999]</span> <strong>Zend</strong>, a new optimized engine for PHP has been <a href="http://www.zend.com/PR.html">announced</a>.

This is mostly a maintenance release. Some new modules make their first apperance in this version. Support for Adobe PDF and FDF as well as XML and an initial Interbase module are now available.

Two great things that go great together<br /> Combination wins Database of the Year Award at Web98 </h1> <p> <span class="newsdate">[22-Jun-1998]</span> "The substance of the Web is more and more residing in databases, and there are a variety of methods used to generate Web pages. This year, we selected a pair of "free software" tools that work together quite nicely as a platform for building dynamic content. The award is also a tribute to the Open Source initiative; both products are used, developed and supported by interlocking communities of people on the Net." </p> <hr /> <h1>PHP 3.0 Released</h1> <p> <span class="newsdate">[06-Jun-1998]</span> PHP 3.0 is finally here! After 10 months of development PHP Version 3.0 is ready for production environments. Coupled with the release of the final version of Apache-1.3.0 today, the combination provides an unbeatable web hosting platform suitable for both small and large web sites. </p> <p> PHP 3.0 is the latest evolution of the PHP/FI 2.0 language and it offers some dramatic enhancements. It is more than twice as fast, it uses less memory, it has a more consistent language implementation and a much wider set of expressions and language features than PHP/FI 2.0. An included conversion program will help you migrate your PHP 2 scripts to PHP 3. </p> <p> <a href="http://cvs.php.net/co.php/phpweb/Attic/release-3.0.txt?sa=1&login=2&r=1.2">Read the full anouncement</a>. </p> <hr /> <h1>PHP Meaning Vote</h1> <p> <span class="newsdate">[18-Apr-1998]</span> <strong>PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor</strong> was chosen as the official meaning of the PHP acronym with 53% of the votes.

The web site <a href="http://www.marspolarlander.com"> www.marspolarlander.com</a> is powered by a combination of PHP, MySQL and Perl scripts. <a href="http://www.netapp.com/tech_library/3071.html">There is an architecture description here</a>. This architecture document doesn't say very much about PHP other than the fact that PHP is used as the Web scripting language, but it has an interesting description of how they built a large scaleable system and it proves nicely that PHP is up to the task of being part of such a large-scale deployment. </p> <hr /> <h1>PHP 4.0 Beta 3 is out!</h1> <p> <span class="newsdate">[17-Nov-1999]</span> Three months after PHP 4.0 Beta 2 was released, Beta 3 is finally here. This release has a lot of changes, including a "pure" automake/libtool-based build system, Java support and lots of other stuff. All 4.0 beta users are encouraged to upgrade. </p> <hr /> <h1>LinuxWorld Editors' Choice Awards</h1> <p> <span class="newsdate">[31-Jul-1999]</span> PHP is a Finalist in the LinuxWorld Editors' Choice Awards to be presented on Aug.11 in San Jose, CA. PHP is up against QT from Troll Tech in the "Programming Library/Tools" category. </p> <hr /> <h1>PHP 4.0 Beta 1 is out!</h1> <p> <span class="newsdate">[23-Jul-1999]</span> The long awaited beta of the new generation of PHP is here. </p> <hr /> <h1>PHP Tutorials at O'Reilly Open Source Software Convention</h1> <p> <span class="newsdate">[02-Jul-1999]</span> Rasmus Lerdorf and Jim Winstead will be giving a pair of three-hour tutorials at <a href="http://conferences.oreilly.com/">O'Reilly's Open Source Software Convention</a> on August 21, 1999, in Monterey, California. </p> <hr /> <h1>PHP 3.0.11 has been released!</h1> <p> <span class="newsdate">[27-Jun-1999]</span> Hot on the heels of 3.0.10, along comes another release to fix a few problems on Windows and some Unix platforms. If 3.0.10 worked for you, there's probably no need to upgrade. 3.0.10 featured bug fixes, including the last of the fsockopen() and URL fopen() problems, we hope. The dbm database abstraction layer had the mode flag for dba_open() brought into line with dbm_open(), which means "w" will not create a non-existent database (use "c" instead). The documentation has also been moved into its own repository, and the generated HTML documentation is included in the tar.gz instead of the SGML source. For a more complete list of all of the changes, see the ChangeLog. </p> <hr /> <h1>PHP 3.0.9 has been released!</h1> <p> <span class="newsdate">[06-June-1999]</span> More bug fixes, including many in the OCI8 module, and an important fix for fgets() on socket connections. Also added support for PCRE (Perl-compatible Regular Expressions library), t1lib (PostScript Type-1 fonts with GD), and mhash. For a more complete list of all of the changes, see the ChangeLog. </p> <hr /> <h1>PHP Related Books are Available</h1> <p> <span class="newsdate">[12-May-1999]</span> Get ready for a wave of PHP related books to hit the shelves!
