My Favourite PHP Resources

I really enjoy working with PHP, but I'm always forgetting stuff - mostly syntax and the actual names of the functions to use. So I've compiled a list of my favourite resources to help me quickly find the information I need.

Beginners PHP Tutorials. An excellent, step by step method of learning about PHP

PHP Snippets. For when I forget the correct syntax!

Headers Already Sent error. A useful resource copied from StackOverflow about the things to look for when you get this pesky error message.

Run a PHP script in the background.

Resolve canonical issues using .htaccess

A couple of links explaining UTF-8

https://www.joelonsoftware.com/articles/Unicode.html

https://www.toptal.com/php/a-utf-8-primer-for-php-and-mysql

Unicode Character Table

Regular Expressions

XML Validator. For when VQmods don't work for no apparent reason.
