I am creating a php mvc framework for learning purposes.
I have a really simple PDO wrapper but I feel it is still too much trouble for the user to write all the sql queries themselves. So I want to implement something like ORM like almost all php frameworks have. However, I am not a big fan of ORM and was wondering if there were any (good) alternatives to ORM. If not, then can someone provide me with a simple good ORM example?

An alternative can be the one described by Tony Marston on Using PHP Objects to access your Database Tables (Part 1) (Part 2). With that he construct a DML Class and finally a Data Dictionary.

I wanted to know about Data Type implementation in PHP so I need a few resources(books websites and ...). what I want is not what data types PHP support or how to use them, it's the implementation and how all these things is done by PHP. I want to know how they are stored in memory and the very detail things about it(I already know PHP pretty good). That would be great if you could lead me where can I find this information.
Somewhere like IRC Maxwell's blog would be a good starting point, together with nikic's blog posts
Here is a couple of articles on data types in PHP from PHP Rocks and dummies. An interesting aside when it comes to data types in PHP is Type Hinting which will force a data type to be used for a function parameter.

I am familar with CakePHP 1.3 and I would like to learn the novelties in CakePHP2.
I know there is the new cookbook and also the migration guide. Still, I would like something broader than the migration guide without having to read all the cookbook again. I am thinking about something like a series of blog posts, in the spirit of the Django advent.
Is there anything like this around?
At CakeFest this year Mark Story gave a presentation on the changes and they posted it as a video of changes in 2.0. I found this to be a good high-level intro and might fit what you're looking for.
The other presentations from CakeFest 2011 might be useful to you too.
I think the only things you need is 2.0 Migration Guide and New Features in CakePHP 2.0. Other thing is practice.

I've been using Yii, and it's good, but its helper library is lacking. I've been snooping around CakePHP, and it has some some nice helper functions, like timeAgoInWords() and autoLinkEmails().
Is there a php framework or library that stands out as having a crazy good helper library? in particular, for formatting. Plus, what is your favourite function?
Thanks!
I'm a big fan of CodeIgniter as it has a very nice template system included for doing page designs/formating.
Zend Framework has a pretty good one.

I need to dynamically build chart based on user's submissions. These submissions are done through long-polling. What I mean is that users submit values to the server, and then I need a graph that will be instantly built based on values. What library would you suggest to use in this situation? I am looking at http://www.jstat.org/demonstration and http://www.highcharts.com/ now, but would love to hear your advice.
My application is in php (yii framework)
have you ever looked at flot or RGraph? I have found Highcharts to have a steeper learning curve than flot or RGraph (IMHO). You might get rolling faster with one of these two.

What's a good tool to reverse engineer a set of php/html pages ? It's not object oriented, it's a big mess that started in early 2000 (so no UML tools obviously!).
I'd like to draw a link between files/functions that are included or called via the 'action' attribute of a form.
So basically, I would like to have a nice simple diagram to have a clear idea of how is structured a site, what variable are passed between pages through "action", the arguments of functions, in a //diagram// !
Javascript have no impact on the flow of pages here.
Don't tell me that my only hope is to write a big filthy tool to do that ?!?
Thanks-
You can use xdebug to generate a cachegrind file and then use Kcachegrind to view the diagram.
