I agree about the curly braces, not a very good idea.
I pusblished here:

our company coding standard , which is basically ZF standards, with very few exceptions.

I’ve always had kind of a flexible coding style (generally I try to adhere to existing coding styles if I’m working on someone else’s code) but the one thing that bugs me about the Zend standard is the opening brace on the same line as the condition in an if statement, eg

if (foo) {
}

I’ve always put the opening brace on a new line.

Hi Cal,

Which ones do you disagree with, I wonder?

My pet peeves are _ prefix on protected vars and the space before the ( on an if.

Hey Cal,

thanks for your appeal on using coding standards. When I read your comment how you became a believer in coding standards I thought “oh yes, it is so true”.

Thanks for the book as well!
