Don't know if anyone will find this handly, but here's a CSS processor that I wrote that allows me to nest CSS Blocks, and various other things, making for an easier to maintain CSS file.

Warning: I'd recommend caching the results since I didn't have a need to optomize it for speed.

Things that it includes:
*Nested CSS Rules
*Removes Whitespace
*Allows for // comments
*Removes comments (so put them in at no cost)

Please let me know what you think

This is a simple function that resizes and image using the GD add on for PHP.
Just a disclaimer: I know its not perfect, but i figured i would post it because the only other one on here is way confusing to some new PHP developers. Hopefully this one will help you learn how to use GD, and then you can write a better one.

With this function you can calculate the age of a person

Example:
echo "Age is: " . age("1984-07-05");

Result will be (23 Feb 2005) = "Age is: 20"
