This blog post is meant to be a short guide and tips repository for setting up a PHP development environment using Eclipse PDT and xDebug. I use such an environment for my Drupal based development and it is an invaluable tool to me. This post doesn't explain everything because there's lots to it. From my experience (as a former Zend employee (Zend produces its own commercial PHP IDE)) and from my acquaintance with the PHP development community, I have a good reasons to believe this article could serve a few PHP developers out there.

Well, its just a simple post
I waned to share with whoever might find it useful my Zend Studio' (PHP IDE) color scheme.

I tend to prefer light on dark schemes, and usually with low contrast. This scheme is no exception. Below is a small screen-shot showing how it looks.

Question: How do one change his default keyboard layout switching key-bindings (in KDE, of course!) from the default Ctrl+Alt+K to Alt+Shift-Left ?

Hi all,

I'm quite excited - the new site is forming up. I've spent hours debugging and playing with the various photo albums capabilities this system (Drupal) offers and test albums have been already created. As a plus, I use the slick "thickbox" tool which opens the picture on top of the window while shading the background.

Cant wait till I'll learn even more and start finalizing it toward actually moving the whole family site to this system.

See ya soon!

Site development is continuing. I've added "taxonomy" terms. Taxonomy is like "tags" (Flickr terminology) or "labels" (Google terminology). The taxonomy is expandable by users who can post on this site. It is a very good tool for organizing content on the site (in fact, its one of Drupal's strongest features). With this sort of classification its very easy to search later for "administrative" posts or "Action" or "Melancholic" mood pictures. Yep, as powerful as that.
Classification is also important if you wish to have your content easily found via search engines

Welcome to the new version of the site. I'm still building it so its hardly prepared for prime time. Feel free to send me an email if you have any proposal or remark.

See you soon!
Boaz.
