SQL Commands 

SQL commands are instructions used to communicate with the database to perform specific task that work with data. SQL commands can be used not only for searching the database but also to perform various other functions like, for example, you can create tables, add data to tables, or modify data, drop the table, set permissions for users. SQL commands are grouped into four major categories depending on their functionality:

• Data Definition Language (DDL) - These SQL commands are used for creating, modifying, and dropping the structure of database objects. The commands are CREATE, ALTER, DROP, RENAME, and TRUNCATE.
• Data Manipulation Language (DML) – These SQL commands are used for storing, retrieving, modifying, and deleting data. These commands are SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE.
• Transaction Control Language (TCL) – These SQL commands are used for managing changes affecting the data. These commands are COMMIT, ROLLBACK, and SAVEPOINT.
• Data Control Language (DCL) - These SQL commands are used for providing security to database objects. These commands are GRANT and REVOKE.

Commercial Databases

• Oracle

Oracle is the most popular relational database. It runs on both Unix and Windows. It used to be many times more expensive than SQL Server and DB2, but it has come down a lot in price.

• SQL Server

SQL Server is Microsoft’s database and, not surprisingly, only runs on Windows. It has only a slightly higher market share than Oracle on Windows machines. Many people find it easier to use than Oracle.

• DB2

IBM’s DB2 was one of the earliest players in the database market. It is still very commonly used on mainframes and runs on both Windows and Unix.

Popular Open Source Databases

• MySQL

Because of its small size, its speediness, and its very good documentation, MySQL has quickly become the most popular open source database. MySQL is available on both Windows and Unix, but it lacks some key features such as support for stored procedures.

• PostgreSQL

Until recently, PostgreSQL was the most popular open source database until that spot was taken over by MySQL. PostgreSQL now calls itself “the world’s most advanced Open Source database software.” It is certainly a featureful and robust database management system and a good choice for people who want some of the advanced features that MySQL doesn’t yet have. PostgreSQL does not yet natively support Windows, but it is supposed to in the upcoming 7.5 release.

Tools For PHP programmer

List of tools that every PHP programmer should know about.

Phing – a project build system

Phing is a project build system based on Apache ANT. The name is a recursive acronym, of sorts, that stands for PHing IsNot GNU make. Phing can do anything a traditional build system like GNU make can do, but without the steep learning curve.

The idea behind phing (and other build tools) is to evaluate a set of dependencies, then execute a set of PHP classes to properly install and configure an application. The build process is controlled by a simple XML configuration file. Out of the box, phing can perform token replacement (e.g., to change include paths on your development and production systems), execute SQL, move and copy files, run shell scripts, and more. You can also create your own custom tasks by extending the “task” class included with the package.

Phing is an invaluable tool for anyone who needs to deploy large scale PHP applications on more than a single server. But I’ve found it useful for simple scripts, too.

Xdebug – debugger and profiler tool

Xdebug is a PHP extension that helps you debug and profile scripts. Among the most useful features of Xdebug are the new notice, warning, and error messages that are displayed after activation. If a script fails to execute properly, Xdebug will print a full stack trace in the error message, along with function names, parameter values, source files, and line numbers. A welcome feature for developers who are tired of the skimpy error reports from a default PHP install.

The extension has a number of more advanced features that allow developers to perform code coverage analysis, collect profiling information, and debug scripts interactively. The profiling functionality is particularly useful. The profiler uses a common output file format, allowing you to use tools like KCacheGrind to quickly find bottlenecks in your code. A good profiler is an essential tool for any serious developer, as it allows you to properly optimize your code while avoiding the hazards of premature optimization.

PHPUnit – unit testing framework

PHPUnit is a lightweight testing framework for PHP. It’s a complete port of JUnit 3.8.1 for PHP5, and is a member of the xUnit family of testing frameworks (which are based on a design by software patterns pioneer Kent Beck).

Unit tests form the foundation of several modern agile development methodologies, making PHPUnit a vital tool for many large scale PHP projects. The tool can also be used to generate code coverage reports using the Xdebug extension discussed earlier, and integrates with phing to automate testing.

Propel – object-relational mapping framework

Check Computer On/Off Time using TimeSheet Software

Timesheet Software free time tracking tool shows the times your computer has been active during the last 3 weeks, with no previous setup required. The software doesn’t need to run in the background, because Windows OS tracks logon and logoff/standby times (working hours) by default, and the program analyses it.

GNOME Declares War on Minor Bugs With ‘Every Detail Matters’ Project

GNOME’s Allan Day has announced the launch of a new development project aimed at fixing ‘the small bugs [in GNOME] that ..undermine the overall experience.’

Does FeedBurner put ads in my feed without my consent

Nope.

FeedBurner only modifies your feed to the extent that the services you choose from our catalog require. We strongly believe publishers should retain creative and technical control over their work and that our services should only apply when chosen. FeedBurner does not sneak advertising into feed items or modify hyperlinks without your consent; if you see advertisements at the bottom of feed items, it means you (or the publisher whose FeedBurner feed you're viewing) has chosen to run them in their feed and is sharing the revenue. Also, our Item Stats service provides detailed clickthrough statistics by modifying links in your feed that point back to the original source. Again, these modifications only occur if you have chosen them and can be immediately reversed by deactivating the service.

Offering Email Subscriptions to your WordPress blog (WordPress.com or self-hosted)

FeedBurner also offers our Email Subscription service, which uses your feed to send an update once each day that you make new post(s) to your blog. If you want to offer a link to subscribe to these email updates to your readers, visit and activate the Email Subscriptions service on the Publicize tab for your feed. Then, copy the "Subscription Link" code we offer into your blog as a "Text" widget under Presentation > Widgets in the WordPress Dashboard for your site.

What is a feed hit?

We record a hit each time someone loads your feed in a web browser, feed reader or other program. When bots and automated services request your feed, that also counts as a hit.

Live Hits

Your Live Hit page shows the time and user-agent for the last 25 hits to your feed. If we have fewer than 25 hits on record, we’ll list all of them. It looks like this:

Why does it matter?

Hits don’t always correspond to subscribers, but they’re still important -- especially when they come from a web browser.

Potential subscribers are likely to hit your feed in their web browser when they click a “subscribe” link on your website or discover your feed in a search engine. While these people are not counted as subscribers (but will be the moment they get hooked on your content and start viewing it with a feed reader), they have nonetheless seen your feed, and we count these exposures as hits.

Promoting your FeedBurner feed on your WordPress.com site

To promote your FeedBurner feed on your Wordpress site, just use FeedBurner's Publicity Tools to select a "chicklet" image to display a link to your feed from your blog's homepage.

1. Click the Publicize tab.
   
   A list of publicity-related services appears.
2. Locate and click the Chicklet Chooser service.
   The form shown below loads into the right side of the screen:
   
   This form contains several options for buttons that promote (and link to) your FeedBurner feed.
3. Click the radio button next to the button you want to display on your site.
4. Copy the HTML shown in the bottom section of the Chicklet Chooser. You will paste this HTML into your WordPress site template.
   
5. From the WordPress Dashboard, click the Presentation tab and then the Sidebar Widget option.
   
6. Drag the text widget from the Available Widgets area to your Sidebar.
   
7. Click the right side of the widget to expand it
8. If you'd like to give this widget a title you can, but it is not required. This title will show up on your site.
9. Paste the code you copied from FeedBurner in an earlier step into the content field.
   
10. Click the "X" in the upper-right corner to close the widget box.
11. Click Save Changes.
    After the code is saved, you should immediately be able to view your chicklet in your site's sidebar.

Adding FeedBurner Email to your TypePad or Blogger blog

Once you have activated FeedBurner's Email Subscriptions service for your feed, you can easily incorporate the code to display a subscription form (or link) on your website if you use Blogger or TypePad.

To most easily add the form or link to your site, look for the following menu below the subscription form or link code box on the Email Subscriptions setup form for your feed:

Choose Blogger or TypePad, then click Go, and you will be taken to the appropriate site to complete the code widget installation process automatically.

Note: This widget feature will only work properly if you are using a standard Blogger Layout with your Blogger blog, or are using Standard Templates (not Advanced Templates) with TypePad. In both of those cases, you must manually edit your template code to insert the subscription link or form code FeedBurner provides you.
