Slowly but surely, open source technology is converting hordes of doubters to firm believers across Asia, including the Philippines. Consumer perception and preference for open source products such as the Apache Web Server, Linux Operating System, PHP, Apache Tomcat, and Eclipse IDE, have been on an upswing, according to open source guru Winston Damarillo during the recent Philippine Open Source Summit (POSS) in Cebu. The regional trend follows accelerated deployment of open source technology worldwide, with almost half of all websites in the world running on Apache Web Server, said Damarillo, who serves as chair of software development firm Exist.

Zend disabled the Xdebug support of the Eclipse PDT plugin in its distribution of the Eclipse platform. If you’d like to use Xdebug, Max Horvath posted these simple steps to enable the Xdebug functionality of Eclipse.
First you need to quit Zend Studio for Eclipse if it is still running.
Go to your Eclipse folder, for this article for instance /usr/local/ZendStudio:
cd /usr/local/ZendStudio
Enter the plugins folder (i.e. /usr/local/ZendStudio/plugins):
cd plugins
Stefan Esser presents an approach, a way to detect unknown query types which are result of SQL-Injection. The said approach is a simple way to make arbitrary applications more secure without touching a single line of code.
This approach is based on the idea that SQL queries issued by an application always have a certain structure. This structure can be learned and remembered by MySQL-Proxy. Any SQL query that has a different structure can then be considered an attack.
Alejandro Gervasio takes a close look at the main features bundled with the CodeIgniter PHP framework.
CodeIgniter permits users to develop small and middle-scale PHP applications with minimal setup. It is built around the Model-View-Controller pattern which allows easy separation of data from application logic and visual presentation.
