Is there also an ETA for Zend Optimizer. We are in the process of rolling out php 5.3 on our hosting platform but we can’t do it atm

i can’t seem to work it out, is there a setting for storing SplQueues in session
i tried in the first file
$q = new SplQueue();
$q->enqueue(‘something’);
session_start();
$_SESSION['q'] = $q;
then in the second file
session_start();
print ‘<pre>’;
print_r($_SESSION);
and basically it prints out
[q] => SplQueue Object
(
[flags:SplDoublyLinkedList:private] => 4
[dllist:SplDoublyLinkedList:private] => Array
(
)
)
i had a custom written queue object that did work properly, but thought it must be better to use something that is built in
?

PHP has taken the IT world by storm. Developers have taken a liking for PHP because it is emerging as the most efficient, open-source scripting language. Besides, it’s a well-known fact, that Apache is the most used web server in the world and that PHP is the most used language. The article discusses briefly what makes PHP the cynosure of developer’s eye.
Eager to know who’s the brain behind this big-bang theory in the development world? He’s Rasmus Lerdorf The developer utilized the first version to run his own home page, while his collection of Practical Extraction and Report Language (Perl) code snippets created by him in 1994 were named Personal Home Page (PHP).
