PHP does have limited locale support, I think PHP 6 primary focus was full unicode support and namespaces. :P PHP can be used (and is used) to power everything from small scale to massive enterprise applications. What I like about PHP and open source (when done properly) is the flexibility in picking what parts I want and assembling those parts into my own custom tool chain. I'm not forced into using any one framework. In fact, I wrote my own (derived from Zend & Symphony) but I have some Zend classes and a few others to boot. PHP is a great environment. My only rant about PHP would be that it's so easy to learn, any dummy can buy a book and in 30 days claim to be PHP/MySQL/OOP expert and compete for the same jobs I do. :P Cheers :) I'm finding the only constant in software development is change it self.

Hi Chris, I see, thanks. I wonder what new quirks you will come up with. :-D :-D Luc Pattyn [Forum Guidelines] [My Articles] Voting for dummies? No thanks. X|

How about I will write one. Besides, I'm self-employed. People using Windows XP are still living in 2001.

Your idea makes sense to me. I can visualize it. Long time ago I had this idea about linking validators to field or objects etc without explicitly writing code - it was more about relation and communication. Marc Clifton wrote: I have some ideas on where I want to go with that, and for a first prototype, I thought of using XNA, though DirectX3D and OpenGL are possibilities as well, and frankly, not knowing enough about D3D and OpenGL, I have no logical basis for choosing XNA other than it seemed easy to get started with. OpenGL can be ruled out unless we want pure C/C++ level api's for graphics. Ideal would be XNA and if not then Managed DirectX - I say this because I see them being easy to use, code will be more manageable etc. Managed directX has a performance hit but it is not that high - I vote for code that can be better managed compared to a slight performance increase, and we definitely are not developing realtime game :) If you wish, we can take this offline because few people might find this off-topic.
