DB

Channel pear.php.net
Summary Database Abstraction Layer
Version 1.7.13 (stable) was released on 2007-09-21
License PHP License
Description DB is a database abstraction layer providing:
* an OO-style query API
* portability features that make programs written for one DBMS work with other DBMS's
* a DSN (data source name) format for specifying database servers
* prepare/execute (bind) emulation for databases that don't support it natively
* a result object for each query response
* portable error codes
* sequence emulation
* sequential and non-sequential row fetching as well as bulk fetching
* formats fetched rows as associative arrays, ordered arrays or objects
* row limit support
* transactions support
* table information interface
* DocBook and phpDocumentor API documentation

DB layers itself on top of PHP's existing
database extensions.

Drivers for the following extensions pass
the complete test suite and provide
interchangeability when all of DB's
portability options are enabled:

fbsql, ibase, informix, msql, mssql,
mysql, mysqli, oci8, odbc, pgsql,
sqlite and sybase.

There is also a driver for the dbase
extension, but it can't be used
interchangeably because dbase doesn't
support many standard DBMS features.

DB is compatible with both PHP 4 and PHP 5.

HTML_Template_IT

Channel pear.php.net
Summary Integrated Templates
Version 1.3.0 (stable) was released on 2010-03-10
License Modified BSD license
Description HTML_Template_IT is a templating engine designed to allow easy separation of concerns. It does this by clearly separating the presentational code from the PHP code. The presentation code may be of any format, however generally XML or HTML is used.
This engine works on the foundation of blocks and placeholders. It uses the hierarchy of blocks to determine which presentational code is instantiated when blocks are parsed. The placeholders allow the insertion of "dynamic" information.
There are two classes to use for templating. HTML_Template_IT is used for basic templating needs. HTML_Template_ITX gives you full power over the templating engine, allowing blocks to be added, and function callbacks to be used.

XML_Parser

Channel pear.php.net
Summary XML parsing class based on PHP's bundled expat
Version 1.3.2 (stable) was released on 2009-01-21
License BSD License
Description This is an XML parser based on PHPs built-in xml extension.
It supports two basic modes of operation: "func" and "event". In "func" mode, it will look for a function named after each element (xmltag_ELEMENT for start tags and xmltag_ELEMENT_ for end tags), and in "event" mode it uses a set of generic callbacks.

Since version 1.2.0 there's a new XML_Parser_Simple class that makes parsing of most XML documents easier, by automatically providing a stack for the elements.
Furthermore its now possible to split the parser from the handler object, so you do not have to extend XML_Parser anymore in order to parse a document with it.

XML_Serializer

Channel pear.php.net
Summary Swiss-army knife for reading and writing XML files. Creates XML files from data structures and vice versa.
Version 0.20.0 (beta) was released on 2009-06-11
License BSD License
Description XML_Serializer serializes complex data structures like arrays or object as XML documents.
This class helps you generating any XML document you require without the need for DOM.
Furthermore this package can be used as a replacement to serialize() and unserialize() as it comes with a matching XML_Unserializer that is able to create PHP data structures (like arrays and objects) from XML documents, if type hints are available.
If you use the XML_Unserializer on standard XML files, it will try to guess how it has to be unserialized. In most cases it does exactly what you expect it to do.
Try reading a RSS file with XML_Unserializer and you have the whole RSS file in a structured array or even a collection of objects, similar to XML_RSS.

Since version 0.8.0 the package is able to treat XML documents similar to the simplexml extension of PHP 5.
