I have a php script. This will communicate with the server using ajax. The ajax response text is returned as a single variable/text/number. But i want to get more than one values in database and stored in a php array. I want this php array to return as ajax response text and stored in a javascript array.

Possible. Please explain….

Me and a buddy are planning on creating a PHP framework, because we are unsatisfied with the current selections. Our primary focus will be on enabling AJAX, and refining the plugin process.

To help with the process (we’re still in the brainstorming phase, with some initial code scratched out), I’m asking you: What features are absolutely essential to you in a PHP framework? What would you like to see in popular options like Drupal, or CakePHP, but aren’t there?

Thanks.

I’ve been using CS4 and just seem to battling against it instead of it working for me. Is there something better? Must be code based, not WYSIWYG. Also, I’ve been using Prototype, but not enough to regret leaving if I have to. I need to learn to code scratch before I use a framework too much.

I have been a programmer using COBOL for about 4 years now. I really hated it and still do, but my biggest fault was NOT DOING ANYTHING ABOUT IT! I really like programming, and would love to continue, but not in COBOL.

I think the only upside in my case is I have also been working on Java, although not as much, for about 3 years. But most of my time I had to use COBOL. Now, if I quit and start looking for a new job, my resume would still have COBOL and I will most probably be interviewed for the same kind of jobs, right? I am really interested in web development, and try and do something in that area in my personal time.

In other words, how do I tell my future employer "Hey, I have 4 years of COBOL experience, but I just want to throw that away and start over. Please give me a job."?

Thanks for the replies guys. I know Java pretty well. I know PHP/HTML/Javascript/AJAX and all that jazz. I have my own personal PR4 website. I write programs for fun. I contribute to open source whenever I can. But since I graduated, I have been working with the same company for 4 years, and have no idea about how the job market is out there. Hell yeah, I can prove I know my stuff. But I have no *OFFICIAL, REAL WORLD* experience! For instance, I can’t say ‘I have solved the such-and-such problem in our intranet website’ or ‘I have a portfolio of clients I have made websites for’. I don’t even know if it really matters, mainly because I have never tried taking an interview or even applying for a job until now.

Thanks again!
