I've just paid the lodging for the site for one more year. There are still quite some people that come here so I decided it was worth it. For those of you who are actually going through the trouble of reading this, please note that there are some things that do not work well in the newer versions of Joomla. Namely the default behavior of JRoute::_ has changed, now besides the url you should pass an aditional parameter indicating that it should not "Replace & by & for xml compilance". So everywhere you see JRoute::_(url) in the tutorials imagine it is JRoute::_(url, false) instead :) Cheers!

It's good to know that it is still useful. Sorry about the site being down for a couple of days (my fault :P)

I haven't been doing development in PHP lately [I'm a PhD student, and I'm on the finishing stages, so I don't really have *any* free time].

I haven't tried Joomla 1.6 yet. Are the tutorials still accurate?

Thanks again for the comment

Dear b1ix:

Thank you for posting the note. I became very frustrated last week when I tried to access your website only to realize it was down. Please do not leave us PHP/Joomla developers out in the cold. Though basic, your tutorial has helped me to create probably 5 (or more) fully functional custom components to Joomla site which I manage. No other tutorial on the web is so concise, accurate or simple - Not even http://docs.joomla.org!

If you have the tutorial in a PDF format, can you give me a link to download it please? I willingly volunteer to host such docs on my website. Post your reply here and I will contact you via email afterward.
