Feiertage und allgemeine Termine sollten als solche gekennzeichnet werden.

Zuerst trugen wir die Termine und Feiertage in ein PHP-Array ein. Aber es zeigte sich bald, dass diese Datei ‘not human readable’ war, Fehler sind nicht leicht erkennbar und mussten mühsam gesucht und korrigiert werden.

$feiertage =  array (
"2011-07-02" => array("text" => "Beginn Sommerferien f. Bgld, NÖ, Wien", "type" =>"t"),
"2011-07-09" => array("text" => "Beginn Sommerferien f. Ktn, OÖ, Sbg, Stmk, Tirol, Vbg", "type" =>"t"),
"2011-08-15" => array("text" => "Mariä Himmelfahrt", "type" =>"f"),
"2011-09-03" => array("text" => "Ende Sommerferien für Bgld, NÖ, Wien", "type" =>"t"),
"2011-09-10" => array("text" => "Ende Sommerferien f. Ktn, OÖ, Sbg, Stmk, Tirol, Vbg", "type" =>"t"),
"2011-09-24" => array("text" => "Hl. Rupert", "type" =>"t"),
);

Das ist nur ein Auszug, die originale Liste beinhaltet alle Termine und Feiertage von 2011 bis 2013.

Eine klare Formatierung hilft zwar bei der Lesbarkeit, aber immer noch nicht beim Schreiben bzw. Copy/Paste aus einer verfügbaren Quelle.

$feiertage =  array (
	"2013-01-01"    => array (
	"text"        => "Neujahr",
	"type"        => "f"
),
	"2013-01-06"    => array (
	"text"        => "Hl. Drei Könige. Ende Weihnachtsferien",
	"type"        => "f"
),
	"2013-02-12"    => array (
	"text"        => "Faschingsdienstag",
	"type"        => "t"
),
	"2013-02-13"    => array (
	"text"        => "Aschermittwoch",
	"type"        => "t"
),
	"2013-02-14"    => array (
	"text"        => "Valentinstag",
	"type"        => "t"
),
);

Einen Ausweg und eine Lösung bietet die PHP Funktion fgetcsv . Wir legten eine CSV-Datei an, und trennten die einzelnen Spalten mit einem Tabulator.

2011-07-02    t    Beginn Sommerferien f. Bgld, NÖ, Wien
2011-07-09    t    Beginn Sommerferien f. Ktn, OÖ, Sbg, Stmk, Tirol, Vbg
2011-08-15    f    Mariä Himmelfahrt
2011-09-03    t    Ende Sommerferien für Bgld, NÖ, Wien
2011-09-10    t    Ende Sommerferien f. Ktn, OÖ, Sbg, Stmk, Tirol, Vbg
2011-09-24    t    Hl. Rupert

Mit einem Script wird dann das File ausgelesen und in ein Array umgewandelt.

$file = $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].'/calendar/feiertage.csv' ;
$handle = fopen ( $file, 'r' ) ;
$DATA = array();
while ( ($data = fgetcsv ( $handle, 1000, "\t" )) != FALSE ) {
	$DATA[$data[0]]['type'] = $data[1];
	$DATA[$data[0]]['text'] = $data[2];
}
print_r ( $DATA ) ;

Das Array hat nun die gewünschte Form, die Quelle ist überschaubar, leicht zu lesen und zu ergänzen.

UNetbootin allows you to create bootable Live USB drives for Ubuntu, Fedora, and other Linux distributions without burning a CD. It runs on Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X. You can either let UNetbootin download one of the many distributions supported out-of-the-box for you, or supply your own Linux .iso file if you’ve already downloaded one or your preferred distribution isn’t on the list.

Features

UNetbootin can create a bootable Live USB drive, or it can make a “frugal install” on your local hard disk if you don’t have a USB drive. It loads distributions either by downloading a ISO (CD image) files for you, or by using an ISO file you’ve already downloaded.

There has been a great deal of debate about Flash versus HTML5. We think it’s pointless. The revolutionary aspect of the JW Player is that Flash and HTML5 work together as part of a single player. Skins, JavaScript, and soon a library of plugins are supported regardless of which rendering mode you choose.

Want Flash for a uniform desktop experience but need to support the iPad? No problem. Standards junkie and only want HTML5? That’s cool too. Either way. One player does it all.

Why Choose the JW Player?
Because you just need it to work.

There are host of niche video players on the Internet today. HTML5 has enabled people to create simple JavaScript players with ease. But video is hard. In fact, HTML5 makes it even harder. It’s not enough to have a player, but you need a player that works in every browser and on every device, old and new.

The JW Player has evolved through the history of online video since the time Jeroen wrote the first version in 2005. The experience we have developed over those years are built into the JW Player. This is evident in our support for all the major CDNs, YouTube, Adobe’s Flash Media Server, Wowza, RTMP streaming, HTTP streaming, major advertising networks, analytics providers, and more. We have worked with these companies for years. By choosing the JW Player you can rest easy that we will offer the same support for HTML5, as we have for Flash, as the market continues to evolve.
