Hello All,

I was looking for PHP Coding guidle lines.

Could someone please share some online URL specifying the best coding practices to be followed while coding in PHP?

Cheers,
Parag

It largely depends on preference. Here's just an example:
http://framework.zend.com/manual/en/coding-standard.html

There is also another guide but is a little outdated.

Good luck

This one is for PHP4. Use with care.

I just finished reading the Zend one and I think that the zend one is a lot better.

That one was last revised in 2003

Ya its a total preference....

when i first started programming i would for example write my methods like this:

Code: [Select]

<?php
function myName() {
    // code
}
?>

then a teacher came a long and got all moody so it changed to

Code: [Select]

<?php
function myName() 
{
    // code
}
?>

now this class that im in now (new teacher) SWEARS by

Code: [Select]

<?php
function myName() {
    // code
}
?>

so ya... stick with what you can read... just keep it clean and be flexible to change
