Review: CodeIgniter for Rapid PHP Application Development
by Nathan Smith (in Book Reviews)

Web development frameworks are a brave new world for some
developers coming to them after years of procedural coding--and
while the golden boy of frameworks, Ruby on Rails, now has several
books to learn from, the relatively new PHP framework industry is
lagging behind in that respect. Columnist Nathan Smith takes a
look at a new book aiming to plug that gap for one of the hottest
frameworks around: CodeIgniter.

Excerpt: Pro JavaScript Design Patterns
by Ross Harmes (in Articles)

JavaScript libraries were the hot topic last year, and have made
it easy for us to build ever more powerful applications--but are

Yahoo!'s Ross Harmes and Google's (and Digital Web author) Dustin
Diaz, takes a detailed look at OO best practices and how they can
be applied to JavaScript—and this week Digital Web is happy to
present an entire chapter to whet your appetite: The Adapter
Pattern.
