Hi I want to learn Magento, I am doing PHP for almost 2 years learn CMS and framework. Now want to learn Magento but I do not found any solid source to understand functionality and DB structure of magento. If any one can give me some books name or good article that will be very helpful thanks..
The best way to learn Magento is to solve issues as you go along. Maybe a good place to start is this:
http://www.magentocommerce.com/knowledge-base.
Also the guys at siteground did a nice thing with this: http://www.siteground.com/tutorials/magento/
Other than this, maybe you should actually start working on a task and when you hit a brick wall (this should happen very fast), just see how other people solved the issues.
As for database structure, maybe you should read about the EAV paradigm. This is how the products, categories and customers are stored in the DB.
If you insist on a database structure here it is...but good luck with that.

I need to create a custom chart as shown. Can anyone suggest a library for doing this? I've used highcharts in the past, but never seen one quite like this.
I'm not opposed to doing it from scratch if I have to, but I was hoping somebody had a suggestion.
I'm using php on the backend and jquery on the front.
Google Charts API has tons of chart types and it's pretty intuitive.
If you want to totally customize the chart then Raphael.js lets you control every aspect of it, though you'd be building a chart from scratch.
Processing.js is another one if you want to work from scratch.

Well, I recently have been trying to come with code to create matrix in which word hunting can be done. I want the user to initialise rows, columns and of course give the words, it is too difficult to create such code/algorithm as the words can be placed vertically, horizontally or diagonally. I also tried google for such algorithms but without any luck. So, if anyone has an algorthm in mind or has written such PHP code, itll be really great if I can see that.
Thanks in Advance,
Nalin Bhardwaj
I am so sorry , I posted this question here, as suggested by one of the users, I googled a few different things online an dhave found a ruby file which has been built for the same purpose. And , if anybody would like to access it, they may check it out online at http://blade.nagaokaut.ac.jp/cgi-bin/scat.rb/ruby/ruby-talk/298382 . And, now I have decided to use this algorithm itself to create such a PHP file. Thank you everybody, for suggestions

Looking for tutorial on how to build a secure private messaging system using PHP.
Would be much appreciated.. So far I've been following this one http://www.astahost.com/Private-Message-System-t18247.html
Not really liking the way it's structured though. I would appreciate if anyone could point me to a nice tutorial.
I would recommend building your own as then you will be able to build it to the way you like it. I would read some tutorials and then design on paper what you want to build and then build it. You will learn more skills this way and build a better application.
The other side of the coin is what nettuts says:
Social media website with these 10 code techniques
The great part about the private messaging feature is that it’s already built-in to many CMS scripts. However, many sites don’t even turn on this feature. Take advantage of this (mostly) pre-built functionality and keep your visitors happy and chatting with each other
It depends on your desired outcomes, are you learning code? Building something you want to work but dont want to reuse the skills?

I am using python with django. There I can simply make form from models and also it had builtin Admin.
I am eager to know corresponding framework for PHP with all this facilities.
I have encountered lot some similar questions like this, but they had not compared the frameworks with django. Experts Please Suggest.
I'd try Symfony.
What you're referring to sounds like "scaffolding"
I've had good success with Zend in the past. It has a lot of functionality in its libraries and it is all completely decoupled, so you can use whichever parts best fit your task, leaving out other things all together.
It doesn't have built in admin, but I like CodeIgniter. It really gives you freedom with your code without getting in the way.
I like Yii. It's based on the Model-View-Controller pattern, like most of the other PHP frameworks mentioned here. It uses templates, can do scaffolding, etc...
Another one that once saved my ass in a project with close deadline was CakePHP

I'm looking for some software that will allow me to do the following:
alt text http://patrickg.net/lookingfor.png
I don't need anything fancy, just basic information, back and forth dated comments, etc. No payment integration, or file handling.
Thought I'd ask before I write my own
Good luck with that - but from what I've seen, most of the stuff out there have x100 more features, and an appropriate learning curve. I don't know if you can find something with the exact features you've asked.
What's the problem with rolling your own, though? As long as you use a framework, isn't it just a couple days' work (maybe even a day)? Learning/using a full-fledged CMS might take more time.
This may be overkill, but you may want to take a look at SugarCRM
