Well, you should still use tables to present tabular data. ;)

Chris and I have a history of making fun about web development. Don't read much into it. Hence all the wink-emoticons.
Web standards actually save time over table designs once you learn how to use them, and I have lots of deadlines. Since converting to XHTML
No more tables? I'm all for this. Where can I find more information?

Jeeze. A guy throws together a site for free and this is the thanks he gets?
Standards are great if you have no deadlines nothing better to do than
spend hours and hours trying to figure out which hack you need to
include to get your other hacks to work so that you site will render
in any sort of acceptable fashion. My pages will stay "transitional"
until this bleeding edge gets a tourniquet. Tables suck, but not as
bad as getting pure CSS layouts to work right... at least for now.
Talk to me when Firefox has a 90% share.

/me slaps Chris for using a table-based layout in this age of web standards solutions and accessibility. ;)
Overall the site is nice though, Chris. I can't make the meeting. Getting away from work is next to impossible, sorry. I'd only be available for evening or weekend meetings.

Welcome Scott! It's great to know that more people are learning of the group and want to participate. I feel that this group is a needed resource locally.
I'd say I am using PHP on a large scale. I work for ENCOMPASS Health
Management Systems in West Des Moines. Began here 1.5 years ago and
am soley responsible for the companies Internet site.
I've introduced two Mandrake Linux Web Servers into this MS shop.
Have moved their site to Apache and in the last year have launched 4
Internet web applications and several internal web based apps. The
Internet applications are used by hopsitals, and doctor's offices to
submit patient, medical services, and clinical information for
review and authorization of care. The applications use both MySQL
and MSSQL databases.
In addition I provide freelance development services in which I use MySQL/PHP exclusively.
---- SITE REDEVELOPMENT ----
In addition to the topic about the group. About a year ago I make a
attempt to reorganize our group however I didn't acheive my goal.
Part of the work I did was to concept and build a new site though it
never made it to production.
That's changed! I've recently produced and uploaded the site! http://www.cialug.org/ciapug/
You will soon be able to visit the site at ciapug.org once again, we
need to reregister the domain.
---- SHOTGUN MEETING ----
Now to get this rolling lets meet ! I'm calling a shotgun meeting for:
Tues. February 1st
11:45 AM
Jason's Deli (Next door to Hu Hot on University Ave West Des Moines)
Open topic discussion
Hope all that are intereted can make it, if you are unable to make this meeting at the time selected, don't worry we WILL do this again.
Please, I encourage you to introduce yourself via the mailing list. Please include in your introduction a bit about where, why, and how you use PHP, as well as what you'd like to see the group provide you.

Sometimes I feel like I'm using PHP in a vacuum with all the big corps around here using their fancy-pants Java or .NET developers. (I even think ColdFusion has a bigger share around here than PHP!)
In any case, hello, and I hope to meet some of you in the near future.
