Microsoft released two out-of-cycle patches on July 27, 2009, one for IE and one for Visual Studio. Microsoft normally only release patches on the second Tuesday of the month. Only urgent patches are issued outside this cycle, and these patches should normally be installed ASAP.
The PHP 5.3 stable release is imminent.
“PHP 5.3.0 is a newly developed version of PHP featuring long-awaited features like namespaces, late static binding, closures and much more.”
It is scheduled on June 30th

Thank you everyone who read, contributed, and subscribed on Server-Side Magazine.
As you discovered, SSM is struggling a little bit, but I still have plans with it.
I’m considering to re-brand the website, creating a new theme and writing more interesting articles.
So stay tuned!
SSM presents another great tool called SQL Query Tester.
It is created for web developers who are working / testing SQL queries a lot. The nice thing about this tool is that it gets the query results via AJAX, so you don’t have to refresh the page, it has a SQL syntax highlighter and a basic profiling tool.
It is written in PHP and jQuery, using ADOdb as a database abstraction layer and CodePress for the SQL editor.
It’s completely open source, you can find it at: code.google.com/p/sql-query-tester

The author of the website wrote a nice article on cross site request forgeries (CSRF), what to watch out for when implementing such security measure.
You may want to have a look at his post at: http://blog.preinheimer.com/index.php?/archives/283-Stop-Messing-up-CSRF-Protection.html
We are trying to constantly improve Server-Side Magazine.
The new features are:
1. New popular posts: The post categories are now included along with the post titles.
2. Improved smilies: We included new smilies for you, and also implemented a smiley toggle panel on the comment form. Check it out.
