This php script provides a unique random key with 32 characters and can be used to avoid the system to pass some primary keys across the url, by example.

This function tries to locate a file in a give folder (either single level, or in any sub folder). Returns the relative file and path, or FALSE if not found. Skips over "." and "..".

This function takes a directory, and a "folder" search parameter.
If it finds the directory (either in single level, or any sub folder) it will return the relative path of that folder. "FALSE" if not found. Skips over files and "." and ".." directories. Recursive by default.

Takes a given directory and lists all the files and folders under it, including sub folders. Resulting array contains associative (folders) and indexed (files) elements. Doesn't return "." and ".."

Best use of ob_, custom error handling, and variable variales evar: simple templating.

_parse($filename[,$locals])
includes $filename and renders its output to the return value. $locals, if used, will add a set of variables to the included context.

Parse($template[,$locals])
Same as above, but allows you to define a base template folder and omit the .php - just for cleaner code.

t($template[,$obj])
...
t()
Same as Parse, but any output between the opening call and the closing call (no arguments) will be buffered intot he $content variable of the template.

Play around with t(..) to find out more; I don't feel like documenting it.

My previous entry on an easy to use SQLite interface for XUL/JS got me thinking: how many times have I had to write functions that were just wrappers for a little SQL?

Below is the fruits of that little query (excuse the pun). Forgive the dbXXX functions; my implementation depended on a small portion of a larger mysql library that I've grown accustomed to coding with.

Forgive the formality here; this is one of my professional scripts.

Dead simple interface for structured SQLite access within XUL, using Mozilla's SQLite Storage API.

A simple function (with support) that can provide the backbone to any templating system.

Simple. It's parse_url, from PHP, implemented in Javascript. Seen a lot of similar ones around the web, but they were all bulky code and none of them took advantage of the RegEx parser in JS.

Applied as a member of the String prototype, so just call as myURL.parseURL(); Will return a named object with naming identical to that of PHP's function.

Additional: if first argument is present, will break the querystring up into name/value pairs, unescaped, and return that instead of the raw querystriing.
