I think you receive at leat 20 hits from me daily, it's my homepage from about 3 months and I don't intend to change it :) recently i added "of Pears and Pickles" too, so when I open a FireFox? session, the two tabs are opened in the same time, so my hunger for PHP news is satisfied :>.Just keep up the good work, and perhaps update it more frequently.Thanks.

Love it, it's in the number-one position on my "multiple times daily" Safari tab. :-)

Great site! How about printing up some t-shirts?

Don't update more often, I already spend far too much time on PHP news ;)

Well... I don't have you as a home-page... But I do use a rss reader to connect to your feed and see what's new in the PHP World.

So: keep up the good work.

PS: what I would like to see on the "PHP blogging market" is a place where people that have anything good to say about PHP would be able to do so, in a blog manner, not just comments.

Hi!

The idea of the "Blogging Market" sounds cool. Maybe we can open the Planet-PHP Blog to be writeable for everyone. But first I'll have to implement a little plugin to make those comments approveable. :) Can last a while...

Better ideas?

Regards,Toby

Maybe I can pitch-in ... I would be glad to help if permitted/asked.

By the by, where are you pulling the unified PERL/PECL release block from?

I want! I want!

My goal with "of Pears and Pickles" is to generate RSS feeds for different stages of PEAR/PECL Releases (alpha, beta, stable, etc). All I'm waiting for is s9y's multiple category functionality to kick in.

My biggest complaint is that the column is too thin, I'd prefer it if it used the full width of my browser.

Other than that minor complaint, I love planet php :)

A small idea - how about multiple CSS themes, so I can switch between, like many blogs I've seen. Just to 2-3 CSS and a button will be available in the FFX status bar :)

I visit planet-php.net daily & think it is the best PHP community resource out there. Great work!

One small comment: it would be neat if it were possible to list new releases of PHP projects in general as opposed to PEAR/PECL specifically (e.g. from freshmeat or sf). Of course it's great to see latest versions of PEAR packages, but PEAR - being a repository for more refined packages - tends not to have the latest & greatest cool tools for PHP.

Planet PHP is my homepage, but thats just me being narcissistic ;)

I would suggest that you try to fix up your HTML:

http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.planet-php.net%2Fblog%2F&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline&verbose=1

Fieldset is for Forms, you can get the same effect with CSS.

If you want, I would gladly help with the markup and create a coupla CSS styles as requested in another comment

Aaron: There is no combined feed. We merge them by our own

Hans: Yes, I thought about that, too. But the problem is to get a feed of only PHP projectes from Freshmeat. If you can point me to one, I'm gladly integrating them (or a full feed with category information would be good also)

Davey: If you can show me, how to do the same visual effect without fieldset, I'm more than happy to apply that change. And:

About the whole CSS stuff: Yes, very good idea to have different styles. I like the default one, but maybe others have other preferences. A CSS switcher wouldn't be too hard to implement and as our HTML is quite straightforward already, it shouldn't be too hard to create a completely new style only with CSS ( http://csszengarden.com/ anyone? ;) )

More suggestions are of course always welcome

The CSS switcher should be easy to implement with a select box and some cookies, I guess. Making whole different layouts is not the sense, IMHO, but having styles for different resolutions would be nice.

A little suggestion - The fieldsets would look nice in Gecko browsers with style="-moz-border-radius: 5px;", That's not an issue for IE users because in MS's browser fieldsets have rounded corners by default.
