  1. The top hit on Google... by jmtpi · · Score: 5, Interesting · on Schooling Microsoft On Random Browser Selection

    A Google search on:

    javascript array sort

    gives exactly the bogus answer that Microsoft used in the top hit.
    Unfortunately for Microsoft, a bing search gives the same top hit.

  3. Re:AWStats by hunte · · Score: 2, Informative · on Best website statistics package?
    One caveat - the current version (6.5) has a command-injection vulnerability when run in cgi mode (as opposed to statically-created pages), so watch where & how you install it.


    Right: simply put awstats behind an .htaccess (http://www.javascriptkit.com/howto/htaccess3.shtm l) and you are pretty safe. I use awstats also under windows+iis (it's needed only activeperl to run under win32) and it's rock.

  5. why write down the *password*.... by 3-State+Bit · · Score: 1 · on Write Down Your Passwords
    instead of a mnemonic?

    For example, if I had to write down a seven-character password, I would write down:


    "
    Note to self: Return microwave and vcr. Pay late-fee ($9.30)
    "

    and then put it on a stickie on my monitor.
    Can you guess what the seven-character password is? [I used a suggestion from the javascript I linked above.]
  6. Don't forget the development tools Mozilla has by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 0 · on A Good Resource for Learning XUL & Javascript?


    Honestly, documentation is the dark horse of Mozilla development (I know, because I have on-again, off-again pushes to write docs for mozilla.org and friends).

    http://books.mozdev.org has the online version of "Creating Applications With Mozilla" from the O'Reilly crew.

    Last, but not least, if you have a really simple question that hasn't been answered by one of the above resources, consider searching Bugzilla for bugs that are unfixed and bugs which have been marked fixed or invalid. You can learn a lot that way.

  7. Re:Replaceing MS Access by PrimeNumber · · Score: 1 · on MySQL A Threat to Bigwigs?

    Since its access/users/mysql you are talking about I might be able to help.

    I am going to assume the clients/users are still using windows. MyODBC can be used to connect to your database. (BTW ODBC = Open DataBase Connectivity.) Then you can use MySQLfront to help create tables, etc in a graphical UI on a MS windows box. This means your office 'power users' wont be too mad they wont have their access wizards. ;)

    Now that you can connect to a MySQL DB, and users have gui tools to create tables and select statements, then you can use something like occamboy suggested (Crystal rpts) if you are stuck using VB. OR you might try using a browser as a reporting tool. This works good if cash is limited.

    Example: Using php/apache to build the report html, make a table or DIV for each page, setting a strict table/div width, then at the end of pages insert style sheet page breaks. The user then can print directly from the browser. Yes it *will work* with IE if you are still stuck with it. BTW I would recommend setting the permissions different on the reporting tables, so users can't cheese 'em.

    Hope this helps.

  8. Um, HTTP supports this... by jeremiahstanley · · Score: 1 · on Websites Complaining About Screen-Scraping

    I can think of a few creative uses of mod_rewrite to stop people from hot linking your images. Here is a tutorial on how to set it up using something as trivial as .htaccess.
