I’ve found an excellent PHP Thumbnailer Class which lets you manipulate images easily. Beside usual functions you’d expect from thumbnailer class (such as resize and crop) it also has ability to create thumbnails on the fly or to save them. You can see it in action on PHP Thumbnailer demo page.

PHP Sessions and security April 19, 2004

Chris Shiflett wrote an article on the topic of PHP sessions and ways to implement secure sessions or at least more secure then ordinary PHP session mechanism. Article is called “The Truth about Sessions” and has been published in PHP Magazine. It can be useful both for novice and experienced programmers because it starts with session and HTTP basics and ends up with discussion on session problems and possible solutions. If you are considering creating more secure site you will find this article useful.
