I use PHP to bridge between an obscure programming language (AutoHotKey) and a MySQL backend. This leads me to 2 questions 1) Should I be concerned about latency? There are times that I have to make a few hundred inserts at a time and then there's only a short pause before a few hundred more inserts. 2) I'm using a system that seems like it's not the best way to use PHP to bridge the gap. I use HTTP encoded URLs to get & set information. So this query would translate into that URL. Is there a better way with PHP? INSERT INTO testTable (id, channel, status, datetime) VALUES ('1', '23', '3', NOW()); http://Mywebsite.com/php/ahk2sql.php?key=01010AuthenticationKey0101010&query=INSERT%2520INTO%2520testTable%2520%28id%2C%2520channel%2C%2520status%2C%2520datetime%29%2520VALUES%2520%28%271%27%2C%2520%2723%27%2C%2520%273%27%2C%2520NOW%28%29%29%3B

Hey everyone, I've been starting to use @font-face in the last year or so seeing that most major browsers support it now. I usually just use 1-3 fonts max, but most often I include the italics version, bold and italic bold version, which can easily amount to a couple MBs of data minimum (depending on the font). Since I use EOT, TTF, WOFF and SVG to work in most browsers, the filesize augments. I don't want too much bandwidth (and load time) used, especially when it's not absolutely necessary upon the customer's request, so I was wondering : say if Firefox (or any browser) successfully loads the EOT version of the file, will that browser still download all 3 others or it will specifically ignore the rest? If it does ignore the rest (not download them) then bandwidth would be much less of an issue. I know some of you might say "well, bandwidth nowadays...", but I still prefer to keep things minimal by habit.
