Google Chrome’s view source "annoyance"

  I’ve run into of late is that it doesn’t work very well for dynamically [POST] generated pages.

There's people rambling about it (http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Chrome/thread?tid=1082a452e274f6db&hl=en); there's even a thread (http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Chrome/thread?tid=1082a452e274f6db&hl=en) that finds a work-around, but the same simple comfort (including a quick keystroke access) found in Firefox is not there yet.

 

Quote from the temporary work-around:

"After reading this and poking around a bit, I found if you use the development tools (easily accessed with a right click anywhere on the page, then choose inspect element)  click resources, and enable resource tracking, the first item under "Resources" on the left will be the original source, immutable and syntax highlighted.  It even includes little tips about where you might have had unclosed or improperly nested tags, as well as the HTTP headers.  I agree it would be great if this is what you got from "view source" but it is what we're all looking for."

 

I'd try with right-click > inspect element

IBM adopta Firefox como navegador por defecto

«Firefox va a ser el navegador que usarán los alrededor de 400.000 empleados de IBM, según ha anunciado recientemente en un post Bob Sutor, Vice presidente de open source y Linux en IBM. Entre las razones que da Sutor para el cambio están la compatibilidad con los estándares, un aspecto fundamental con vistas al futuro que vislumbra IBM en el que el cloud computing tendrá un papel clave, además de su seguridad y su capacidad de ampliación y personalización de acuerdo a las necesidades de una empresa y la amplia comunidad internacional que hay detrás del navegador.»

Wildcard DNS, what is it and how do I use it?

 

Wildcard DNS, what is it and how do I use it?

Wildcard DNS makes it so that any subdomain redirects to your main website.

So, if anyone types randomjunk.domain.com or fakename.domain.com, it will go to http://domain.com/ .

You can add this record via cPanel by following these steps:

  • Go into your cPanel, go to Subdomains.
  • Add a subdomain called *
  • Make sure to set the document root to your public_html folder.

Un-Ban Yourself from WHMCS Administration

 

Is your IP banned from your own WHMCS?

Who can remember all their passwords all the time? I have a password manager, and I still don’t get it right.  I use the WHMCS software to manage client hosting and such, and so sometimes I get locked out of my own system because I’ve tried too many times to log in!

createStyleSheet Method - 31 CSS stylesheets limit!

 Working for a client we stumbled upon a feature in IE that doesn't allow more than 31 stylesheet files to be added to a document. So be Aware!

Apple and Adobe on openness

"Apple and Adobe both insist they desire openness, even as Apple places restrictions on what software can run on iPhones, while Adobe pushes its proprietary Flash product for Web video."

"Any software issue can be worked on and fixed, something that Google and Adobe are certainly working on –and this could have been a situation that Apple could have enjoyed with Adobe if they only chose to be more cooperative. "

La vergüenza

Tengo una mesa
que me alimenta,
que a veces tiene
hasta de fiesta.
Mas si tuviera
sólo una araña
burlona en mi despensa,
tendría la vergüenza.
¿A qué más?

Tengo zapatos,
tengo camisa,
tengo sombrero,
tengo hasta risa.
Mas si tuviera
en mi ropero
sólo las perchas vacías,
la vergüenza tendría.
¿A qué más?

Tengo billetes como de octava clase,
pero así viajo: contento de ir de viaje,
pues para un viaje me basta con mis piernas:
viajo si equipaje.
Más de una mano en lo oscuro me conforta
y más de un paso siento marchar conmigo,
pero si no tuviera, no importa:
sé que hay muertos que alumbran los caminos.

Tengo luz fría
y lavamanos,
cables, botones
casi humanos.
Pero si fuera,
ay, mi paisaje
sólo de ruinas intensas,
tendría la vergüenza.
¿A qué más?

Drupal - Node edit permissions quirk

For anyone having the time to code a kind of module that will include all these quirks, here it goes one that happens in Drupal very often.

Granted a role the ability to edit certain nodes, when the user log in and try to edit a page, either there's no edit tab, or the user simply can't edit the node.

If you've tried everything else (chances are you arrived here because of that, you need to grant that role permission to use whichever input type you've set for that node or set of nodes. To do so:

  1. Edit your node and check what input type it is set to use
  2. Go to Site Configuration > Input Formats and then make sure that the corresponding input type is configured to allow the role to use that type.

Sometimes a node will get set to use "Full HTML," and, in doing so, most roles are prevented from being able to edit a node that has that type assigned. 

Cheers!
