PHP

Basically what ini_set() does is, sets the value of the given configuration option. The configuration option will keep this new value during the script's execution, and will be restored at the script's ending. It takes 2 parameters, 1 is variable name, and other is value. I have used the ini_set() function mostly to set the memory limit. This function has helped me lot when I have been working with Drupal site migration to production server.

One of the common complex task among webdevelopers is image resizing. It is a big headach when using multiple size images in multiple pages of a single version of image. For long I was using a an script that would create one thumnail version of the image when the image is uploaded. It was not a suitable solution. Many time we will need different size of thumbnails to be used in different location and pages.

I came across PHPThumb. It was a very much better one for me where it can deliver following types of resizing mechanism.
