Carlack Wheel Cleaner + Meguiars NXT All Metal Polish
At the weekend I had a go at cleaning my brothers Vauxhall Astra’s alloys.
This is what I was greeted with. A rather dirty alloy although not as dirty as a lot of the wheels you see on others cars.
The finish is a polished metal which are slightly kerbed but not too badly.

Zend: addDisplayGroup() – Setting the legend
Original Code:
$nok = $this->addDisplayGroup(array(‘nok_forename’,'nok_surname’,'nok_day’,'nok_month’,'nok_year’,
‘nok_address1′,’nok_address2′,’nok_town’,'nok_county’,'nok_postcode’,'nok_country’),
‘nextofkin’);
I then set about trying to get a legend on the fieldset that was created. My first thought was:
$nok->setLegend(‘Next of Kin’);
But on second thoughts that would never work. I then remembered that the third variable is normally options passed in an array. So…
$nok = $this->addDisplayGroup(array(‘nok_forename’,'nok_surname’,'nok_day’,'nok_month’,'nok_year’,
‘nok_address1′,’nok_address2′,’nok_town’,'nok_county’,'nok_postcode’,'nok_country’),
‘nextofkin’,array(‘legend’=>’Next of Kin’));
This works. :)

Started to learn Zend
I have a couple of projects to do which involve fairly dissimilar functions but I thought it would be a good idea to use a framework rather than rely on my rather poor code. I have always been able to get my code to work but I am sure it was always open to SQL injections and ways around my validation but they did work and were never really put out in the wild with thousands of people to use.
But things have changed now, and I have 2 major projects to do with another in the pipeline.
The first is a bespoke event registration system with event profiles to allow a whole magnitude of differing events with all the events being linked up to each users account. In practice this is fairly easy, but there are so many different bits of politics etc make it a nightmare, as well as being my first incorporation of SSL and secure payments over the Internet.
I will try to update the blog as much as possible with my progress as well as hints and tips that I find useful that may help others progress their Zend skills.
You can find more information on Zend Framework on their website.
