Making tutorials - your wishlist

Hi and I am planning to make a bunch of tutorials. I would like to hear what sort of php/ajax tutorials people would like to see. I have heard in the past that some noobs would like a tutorial on making a blog. What else should I write tutorials about which you would enjoy reading/using?
Try not to bump 10 year old threads as it can be really annoying.

A few suggestions:

- How to debug your code
- How do you use an include() and how do you acces files beneath the webroot?
- How do you secure your site, what techniques can be used and what shouldn't you do.
- When should you use sprintf(), printf(), print(), echo() and how do you use them (%f,%d etc. and wether you should use single quotes(') or double quotes("))

Wow, those are excellent suggestions. I will start them as soon as possible and I think the charts tutorial will be interesting as I have made php charts once before but haven't really used them.
Rep points added!

How about:
A. You make an RSS feed
and B. you parse it! (w/ simplexml probably )

When I was a noob, that gave me sooo many problems.

How about an intro to OOP - preferably without the 'everyday examples', perhaps something linked to login/members/profiles? I realize that's a biggie.

The thing that always gets me is regex. I $/.~ing hate it 'coz I can't get my head around it.

There's really no better tutorial for regular expressions that http://regular-expressions.info
GCS d- s+ a-->? C++(++++) UL+++ P+>+++ L+++ E--- W+++
N+ o K w++(---) O? !M- V PS+>++ PE+ Y+ PGP !t- 5? X- R tv+
b+>++ DI+ D G++>+++ e+ h+>++ r y+
PMs asking for help will not be answered, post on the forums. That's what they're there for.
