Input Filter

Skien, Norway

With the extreme amount of security holes in PHP applications it looks like PHP is too blame. I don't agree with that statement as it's always up to the developers of those Great Project to write solid applications, not PHP.

This does not mean that PHP can't offer better functionality to allow users deal with input parameters more safely. Point #3 of Rasmus' PHP 6 Wishlist is a filter extension to replace the arcane input handling functionality that is in PHP now. Although it's very flexible, using input validation is still a fine art. With input from many others, I wrote an RFC for the filter extension.

We will also be using this in a library component for eZ publish, as part of our Component library.

The new birds I saw, were mostly too far away to get good photos.
But I saw my first Spoonbill, Corn Bunting, and a flock of Black-tailed Godwits.

I had a lovely walk around RSPB Bowers Marsh yesterday, where I saw some expected birds, and a bunch of new species.
When I got there, there was this welcome committee of Starlings.
