New Filters for ZF 1.10
Thomas Weidner has recently blogged about two new filters coming to Zend Framework 1.10:
As you’d expect Zend_Filter_Compress and its counterpart Zend_Filter_Decompress handle compression and decompression from a number of formats including bzip2, gzip, zip and tar. Usefully the format support is via adapters so more can be added.
Zend_Filter_Postcode is locale aware and can validate the format of postcodes from around 150 different countries. I don’t know about you, but building the regex for postcode handling is tedious at best, so this will be a very useful component for me at least!
Full details on how to use these new filters are on Thomas’ site.
