[edit] Error in the "goto" example
I believe the code example for "goto" is broken. flock() is locking by default, so it would never return false, it would just wait until it can acquire a lock. This would work as intended:
if (! flock($file, LOCK_EX & LOCK_NB)) {

[edit] mod_php redirections
mod_php redirects here but it's only mentioned once in passing. 66.187.233.202 (talk) 02:32, 13 August 2011 (UTC)
[edit] FUD on Security
I find it pretty incredible that erroneous security data is posted on this article and the reference source is just someone's personal page. Even so, the data posted on this page doesn't even match the data in the article. Being that PHP is a real threat to other corporate backed languages (that themselves have huge security problems) , it is obvious to any reader that this whole section is just someones sour grapes. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 20.142.112.36 (talk) 17:17, 30 August 2011 (UTC)
If you read carefully the referenced web page (which is a personal page), (http://www.coelho.net/php_cve.html) the author got these numbers by typing PHP into the vulnerabilities website and then he COUNTED THE HITS. Wow. How is that the basis for ANY statistic? It is exactly the same as typing in "(something) sucks" into google, changing the (something) and repeating and then drawing a conclusion. The author on the website actually disclaims his method for being construed as anything legitimate on his personal page:
One can query the database for keywords (e.g. PHP) and dates. It is a little bit crude:
* there may be PHP-related vulnerabilities without the PHP keyword in them (say a bug in the PCRE library may affect PHP)
* some vulnerabilities may have the keyword without being directly related to PHP (a description may contain a reference to a PHP web page).
* a vulnerability report may indicate many vulnerabilities or they may be scattered into several reports.
How this is somehow a reference for the FUD that was then placed on this page is beyond me. This is the reason I removed the paragraph as it was, beyond any doubt, fud. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 20.142.112.36 (talk) 17:35, 30 August 2011 (UTC)
