Senior PHP Developer Average Rate?

[Dow Jones]

Current - not Historical - Rates

That's not really what I said. My comment was that this is not my area but I would have expected the rates to be closer to the figures quoted by max that those by Dow Jones.

Max is quoting 'historical' rates (there are a few guys that I know of still on £ 500+ for Java/C++), I am quoting current rates, ie what they are paying now which is close to the 400 rather than 500 mark for a good coder.
