Zebra_Database version 2.7.2 now available
In version 2.7.2 fixed a bug that most likely appeared since 2.7, where the "seek" method (and any method relying on it, like all the "fetch" methods) would produce a warning in the debug console if there were no records in the sought resource; also, fixed a bug where NULL could not be used in the "replacements" array of a query; thanks to בניית אתרים

Zebra_Form, version 2.8.1 now available
Elements can now be validated "on-the-fly" where an element is validated as soon as it looses focus; use the newly added "validate_on_the_fly" flag for the "client_side_validation"; thanks to François Rigaudie and Konstantin Stoyanov; all error messages can now be shown on form submit rather than only the first one; use the newly added "validate_all" flag for the "client_side_validation"; thanks to François Rigaudie and Konstantin Stoyanov; file names can now be prefixed with a given string when uploading files (using the "upload" rule); thanks to Robert Warelis; the library now triggers an error message if a "date" control doesn't have the "date" rule set. note that this rule cannot be set automatically since it requires an error message to be set by the developer. thanks to bastian; the "length" rule, set with the 4th argument to TRUE, will now always show the character counter; previously, the character counter was shown only if the lower limit was 0. thanks to Andy Vogar; fixed a bug in the JavaScript code regarding the file upload control which was not working with jQuery UI. thanks to edward for fixing it; fixed a bug where validation would fail if there were two or more file upload controls on a form. thanks to edward for fixing it; fixed a bug where the class for disabled control was not correctly applied; some updates in the documentation; updated Zebra_DatePicker to version 1.3.1

I am a 32 year old web developer working from Bucharest, Romania. I am coding since I was 14 and I am extremely passionate about it. For the server side of things I use PHP/MySQL while on the front-end I write valid HTML 5, nice CSS and lots of JavaScript code using jQuery.
