CakePHP and .ctp files

If you use CakePHP as PHP framework then you'll see some different types of files: CTP. And you'll need to see them as a php file in your PHP editor, Eclipse. For this you'll do this:

Preference>General>Content Types>Php then add *.ctp

And then you need to restart Eclipse IDE for have an effect.

CakePHP

Last 2 weeks I tried to put ZF2 to my project www.mateonline.net. It was endless pain to configure Zend Framework 2 for me as a beginner with this. ZF2 as syntax is very nice. But something got wrong with server configuration.
So, then I said I will try Symfony 2. But, I quit immediately. I though it will be easier, but it is no so nice as ZF2.
And, then I pass to CakePHP. Which I like. Except the fact that it has no PDO. I don't like  how is linked to MySQL DB but I can use to it.

PHP namespace

When you use namespace on PHP scripts you have to use require(), require_once(), include() or include_once() . It doesn't work without one of these like you can see on this example:

php namespaces are case-insensitive:

file1.php:
namespace foo;

function bar()
{
    echo 'from bar';
}?>
file2.php:


fOo\bar() // output: from bar
?>

This example is here:

Javascript redirect for mobile devices

The best method to redirect for mobile that I found is following:


<script type="text/javascript">

if (screen.width < 1081) {
 var ref = document.referrer;
 var urls = new Array("http://www.mymainsite.com","http://m.mymobilesite.com");
 var n = ref.match(urls[0]);
 var m = ref.match(urls[1]);
 if ((m!==null) || (n!==null)) {
 stop;
 }
 else if (ref=='') {
 var r = confirm("Small Display is Detected.\nClick \"OK\" for MOBILE SITE.");
 if (r==true) {
  window.location = "http://m.mymobilesite.com";
  }
  else {
  stop ;
 }
 }
 else
 {
 window.location = "http://m.mymobilesite.com";
 } 
}

</script>

Angular JS

Last days I was struggling with implementation of Angular JS on one  my websites: www.pensiunealajura.ro/mobil/

The big issue with this was to list HTML code without listing HTML tags like < or >. For instance, I wanted to have

    This is a bold text.

not

  This is a <b>bold text</b>.

So, I tried to have this with the module ngSanitize and $sanitize and $sce with  $sce.trustAsHtml.

But all of these were not good. And i dug more. And I found out that the best way to write formatted HTML code into a web page using Angular JS  is using directive ngBindHtml as is explained here: 
https://docs.angularjs.org/api/ng/directive/ngBindHtml

Now, everything is ok with my page.
