Now a days I am working in Open Flash Chart (OFC). I found this amazing, easy to generate chart and use in web applications. Flash produces high quality graphics. OFC generates high resolution charts, I think you like this very much. Lets take a look into a screenshot.

OFC generated chart

Click on the thumbnail to view actual size. You may visit OFC homepage, try the tutorial to lean how to make chart using open flash chart. Here your find some sample charts. OFC has two sets of chart library, version 1 and version 2. I think version 2 is better than version 1. Here is the download link of OFC version 2. OFC tutorial is very much easy to understand.

OFC includes some other tools, swfobject, and JSON for data files. And also includes Server Side Helper Libraries for PHP, Perl, Python, Ruby, .NET, Google Web Toolkit and JAVA to generate hassle free JSON formatted data.

I hope you enjoy OFC.

Talking with PHP

I need the current time then I call the php function - time() and get the current Unix timestamp. Then function time() returns the second measured in the number of seconds since the Unix Epoch (January 1 1970 00:00:00 GMT). Say for, in my website users can register for free for one year. I need to calculate an account expiration time after one year. How can I calculate the expiration time. I need to add one year with the account creation time. We may get the the date and time of account expiration using following code.

$expiration = date( 'Y-m-d H:i:s', time() + (365 * 24 * 60 * 60) );

I have another easy solution. See bellow.

$expiration = date('Y-m-d H:i:s', strtotime( 'now + 1 year' ) );

Everyone knows PHP is a flexible language. In the second statement, it seems I am talking with php. ha ha ha

“Cake is a rapid development framework for PHP which uses commonly known design patterns like ActiveRecord, Association Data Mapping, Front Controller and MVC. Our primary goal is to provide a structured framework that enables PHP users at all levels to rapidly develop robust web applications, without any loss to flexibility.”

Manual for CakePHP is available here - http://manual.cakephp.org/ in HTML format. I converted that into PDF. This will help those who likes more to read PDF than HTML.
