Tips for Creating a Plan for Effective Web Application Development by Arun Kumar

For an organization, Web Application Development is extremely important - not only from the business perspective, but also on the virtues of the impact it leaves on the visitors. The image of the company depends on its web applications. The more effective and detail an application is, the better gets the image of the organization displayed. And the business of the company largely depends on its image. Creating a plan for effective web application development is important taking into account the time it takes to complete the project. Such development is usually outsourced to a service provider, which is able to meet the requirements under the stringent time frame and quality requirements. And when it comes to outsourcing, the horde of web development experts in India has no match. India, with its cost-competitive and technologically adept resource pool comes as the best choice as Affordable Web Development partner for businesses worldwide. Generally, an outsourcing decision is preceded by requirement analysis and bidding. The outsource service provider, upon finalization on the project terms, starts to idealist upon the possibilities and thus sends a final blueprint of how the project would be carried forward. Advanced Web Application Development requires planning for various reasons. First, through planning, both the 'service provider' and the 'client' come in terms to your requirements - its features and functionality. Secondly, drawing up a plan is like drawing up a blueprint so that you stay right on the track and meet the deadline set. This is especially true while developing custom web applications. A lot of time is spent in discussion with the clients. So a blueprint is essential so that you draw up a plan, executes it and go to next stage. Working according to a plan also helps to cut sudden expenses. A well-drawn plan encompasses four different phases. First is to understand the nature of the project, clients' requirements and accordingly envisioning the direction and nature of the project. This, as mentioned above, starts as soon as the client chooses a service provider to execute the project. This may take several rounds of discussions before finally the clients agree to the project proposal. The next phase is to device a blueprint for the project. Again, this is done according to the nature of the project, the time frame and other requirements. The third phase involves development and the last stage involves testing, support and stability.

CCVS API Functions in php by ahsan hashmi

These functions interface the CCVS API, allowing you to work directly with CCVS from your PHP scripts. CCVS is RedHat\'s solution to the \"middle-man\" in credit card processing. It lets you directly address the credit card clearing houses via your *nix box and a modem. Using the CCVS module for PHP, you can process credit cards directly through CCVS via your PHP Scripts. The following references will outline the process.

????: CCVS has been discontinued by Red Hat and there are no plans to issue further keys or support contracts. Those looking for a replacement can consider MCVE by Main Street Softworks as a potential replacement. It is similar in design and has documented PHP support!

This extension has been removed from PHP and is no longer available as of PHP 4.3.0. If you want to use credit card processing features you can use MCVE instead.

Installation To enable CCVS Support in PHP, first verify your CCVS installation directory. You will then need to configure PHP with the --with-ccvs option. If you use this option without specifying the path to your CCVS installation, PHP will attempt to look in the default CCVS Install location (/usr/local/ccvs). If CCVS is in a non-standard location, run configure with: --with-ccvs=[DIR], where DIR is the path to your CCVS installation. Please note that CCVS support requires that DIR/lib and DIR/include exist, and include cv_api.h under the include directory and libccvs.a under the lib directory.

Additionally, a ccvsd process will need to be running for the configurations you intend to use in your PHP scripts. You will also need to make sure the PHP Processes are running under the same user as your CCVS was installed as (e.g. if you installed CCVS as user \'ccvs\', your PHP processes must run as \'ccvs\' as well.)

Connection handling in php by ahsan hashmi

Internally in PHP a connection status is maintained. There are 3 possible states:

0 - NORMAL

1 - ABORTED

2 - TIMEOUT

When a PHP script is running normally the NORMAL state, is active. If the remote client disconnects the ABORTED state flag is turned on. A remote client disconnect is usually caused by the user hitting his STOP button. If the PHP-imposed time limit (see set_time_limit()) is hit, the TIMEOUT state flag is turned on.

You can decide whether or not you want a client disconnect to cause your script to be aborted. Sometimes it is handy to always have your scripts run to completion even if there is no remote browser receiving the output. The default behaviour is however for your script to be aborted when the remote client disconnects. This behaviour can be set via the ignore_user_abort php.ini directive as well as through the corresponding \"php_value ignore_user_abort\" Apache .conf directive or with the ignore_user_abort() function. If you do not tell PHP to ignore a user abort and the user aborts, your script will terminate. The one exception is if you have registered a shutdown function using register_shutdown_function(). With a shutdown function, when the remote user hits his STOP button, the next time your script tries to output something PHP will detect that the connection has been aborted and the shutdown function is called. This shutdown function will also get called at the end of your script terminating normally, so to do something different in case of a client disconnect you can use the connection_aborted() function. This function will return TRUE if the connection was aborted.

Your script can also be terminated by the built-in script timer. The default timeout is 30 seconds. It can be changed using the max_execution_time php.ini directive or the corresponding php_value max_execution_time Apache .conf directive as well as with the set_time_limit() function. When the timer expires the script will be aborted and as with the above client disconnect case, if a shutdown function has been registered it will be called. Within this shutdown function you can check to see if a timeout caused the shutdown function to be called by calling the connection_status() function. This function will return 2 if a timeout caused the shutdown function to be called.

One thing to note is that both the ABORTED and the TIMEOUT states can be active at the same time. This is possible if you tell PHP to ignore user aborts. PHP will still note the fact that a user may have broken the connection, but the script will keep running. If it then hits the time limit it will be aborted and your shutdown function, if any, will be called. At this point you will find that connection_status() returns 3.
