BetterPHP

While this is in the suggestions topic, it's not necessarily a suggestion/request... Mods; feel free to move the topic if you find another forum better suitable.

I'd like to invite everyone to share what they want to learn with PHP here. Its a nice to-do list for yourself and it could be a useful source for jacek to see what his audience wants to learn .

- Read data from RSS feeds and manipulate it
- Crawl webpages and store the information in a DB
- Creating graphs/charts
- Non-web applications

I can do somethign on a few of those

What sort of non-web application are you thinking of ?

With todays libraires, why would you want to do this with PHP? Google charts/visualizations or HTML5 Canvas drawing seems more suitable to me.

Personally I still want to:
- get a firm grip of regular expressions.
- get to know Apache configuration and htaccess better.
- get better in OOP.
- combined with a good understanding of Design Patterns.
- get better skilled in advanced SQL topics.
- have a look at MySQLi and PDO.
- have a look at NoSQL solutions like CouchDB and MongoDB.

Not necessarily in that order.
