Visual Studio - Building vs Rebuild Solution vs Compile

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1247457/difference-between-rebuild-and-clean-build-in-visual-studio-2008

Build means compile and link only the source files that have changed since the last build, while Rebuild means compile and link all source files regardless of whether they changed or not. Build is the normal thing to do and is faster. Sometimes the versions of project target components can get out of sync and rebuild is necessary to make the build successful. In practice, you never need to Clean.

Build or Rebuild Solution builds or rebuilds all projects in the your solution, while Build or Rebuild builds or rebuilds the StartUp project, "hello" in the screen shot above. To set the StartUp project, right click on the desired project name in the Solution Explorer tab and select Set as StartUp project. The project name now appears in bold. Since the homework solutions typically have only one project, Build or Rebuild Solution is effectively the same as Build or Rebuild .

Compile just compiles the source file currently being edited. Useful to quickly check for errors when the rest of your source files are in an incomplete state that would prevent a successful build of the entire project. Ctrl-F7 is the shortcut key for Compile.

SESSIONS in Joomla - JSession

** nothing in it by default **

$session =& JFactory::getSession();
echo "<pre><b>Joomla session var</b><br>< br>";print_r($user);echo "</pre><br><br>";

>> The following code gets the current session then sets the value of the session variable 'myvar' to 'helloworld'.

$session =& JFactory::getSession();
$session->set( 'myvar', 'helloworld' );

>> The session variable can be retrieved later in a similar way.

$session =& JFactory::getSession();

Joomla 1.5 - HIDE CONTENT registered vs guests

Joomla 1.5 - HIDE CONTENT registered vs guests

http://www.goodwebpractices.com/joomla/hide-content-from-certain-users.html
THIS IS AN AMAZING BLOG ENTRY!!

When building a website with Joomla 1.5, you might need to hide content from registreted users and guests. When we were recently building a website with Joomla 1.5, we came across the 3 options: JoomiHide Ninja Access - JACL RokAccess In this post we will be discussing the pros and cons of each of these plugins and explaining how to make RokAccess work in Joomla 1.5. Hiding content depending on whether a user is a registered member or a guest is a really useful feature to have. Fortunately, there are a number of different options available set content permissions in Joomla 1.5... JoomiHide How JoomiHide works This is the simplest plugin available for Joomla 1.5 to hide content. Although it's simple it works seamlessly for showing content either to registered members or guests. Content in an article can be restricted to be displayed to certain visitors by adding these tags: {reg} This content is only displayed to registered users logged in {/reg} {unreg} This content is only displayed to unregistered users or non-logged in users {/unreg} When content is restricted for non-members, this plugin replaces the restricted text with: "To view rest of this section, please login or register". This is a nice feature but a little annoying to have it displayed each time content is not displayed. To remove or edit this text, you can hack the plugin by changing the html code on line 108 of joomihide.php which is in /plugins/content/. Unlike content restricted for non-members, when content is not shown to registered users there is no text added. Pros Simple Cons Downloading this membership at HowIDid Academy which will set you back $10 for 3 months. Content can only be hidden to members and non-members: There is no option of showing content to administrators or other Joomla groups Need to hack the plugin to remove or change the text displayed when content restricted for guests Click here to see what other people are saying about JoomiHide. Click here to download this plugin. Ninja Access How Ninja Access works Hide content using this plugin by surrounding the content you want to be seen by certain groups in a tag. Ninja Access uses numbers to specify which group the content includes: {njaccess 0} Shows this content only to guests {/njaccess} {njaccess 18,19,20,21,23,24,25} Shows this content to all users who are guests {/njaccess} {njaccess 24,25,30,31} Shows this content to administrators and 2 custom groups created in JACL {/njaccess} When content is not shown to a particular group, the text is simply hidden. As you can see from the examples above, you need to know the default Joomla GroupIDs: 0 - Guest, 18 - Registered, 19 - Author, 20 - Editor, 21 - Publisher, 23 - Manager, 24 - Administrator, 25 - Super Administrator. Pros Very complete plugin for hiding content for specific groups including groups created with JACL Great support from the Ninjoomla team Cons You need to have the GroupIDs at hand when you use this plugin. Downloading this requires Silver Membership at NinJoomla which will set you back $30. Find out more about Ninja Access here. RokAccess RokAccess is an extremely popular plugin for Joomla 1.0, but hasn't yet been updated for Joomla 1.5. Thanks to Lukas White, we managed to get RokAccess working in Joomla 1.5. How to get RokAccess working in Joomla 1.5 After installing the Joomla 1.0 RokAccess extension on your Joomla 1.5 website, you will need to change the rokaccess.php file which is located in /plugins/content/ There are 3 changes you need to make to this file: $_MAMBOTS->registerFunction( 'onPrepareContent', 'botRokAccess' ); Change to: $mainframe->registerEvent( 'onPrepareContent', 'botRokAccess' ); function botRokAccess( $published, &$row, &$params, $page=0 ) Change to: function botRokAccess( &$row, &$params, $page=0 ) { Delete: if (!$published) { $row->text = preg_replace( $regex, '', $row->text ); return; } How RokAccess works To hide content using the RokAccess plugin you add the RokAccess tag to the content you want to hide. Here are some examples: {rokaccess guest} Shows this content only to guest users {/rokaccess} {rokaccess !guest} Shows this content to all users who are not a guest {/rokaccess} {rokaccess registered} Shows this content to all users who are registered {/rokaccess} {rokaccess guest,!editor} Shows this content this to all guests and members who are not editors {/rokaccess} {rokaccess editor,special} Shows this content to editors, administrators, and superadministrators {/rokaccess} In similarity to Ninja Access, when content is not shown to a particular group, the text is simply hidden. Pros Free Complete Cons You need to hack the plugin files to get this working in Joomla 1.5 No support Click here to see what other people are saying about RokAccess. Click here to download this plugin. Which should plugin should you choose? It just depends on what your needs are. We recommend you choose the plugin you're comfortable using... If you don't want to hack any files and need support with getting the plugin to work, we recommend you use the Ninjoomla plugin. Do you have any experience with these plugins? We welcome your comments below.

Joomla - Show Modules based on IP Location... Use mod_MetaMod & GeoLite City

Show Modules based on IP Location... Use mod_MetaMod & GeoLite City


http://forum.mosets.com/showthread.php?t=8638

Why not use the standard free Maxmind db.dat for creating those country/city for reg, searches, alerts and other mappings etc?

So it can be reused for other Joomla, HP extensions as well.

It works fine and is used with the MetaMod - display modules according to rules http://extensions.joomla.org/compone...391/Itemid,35/but I would like to use the same country/city database for HP 1.0 and other extensions too if possible.

Free dls.
http://www.maxmind.com/download/geoi...e/GeoIP.dat.gz and http://www.maxmind.com/download/geoi...iteCity.dat.gz

About
GeoIP Country/City database

* Download the MaxMind GeoLite Country database, uncompress it (it's in gz format), then place it at the location geoip/GeoIP.dat in on your web server root (you will usually require an FTP or SFTP client to upload this to your site).

* For even more power, download the Maxmind GeoLite City database, and install it at geoip/GeoLiteCity.dat. This gives you the ability to make module rules based on the city/state/county/area code/postal code/latitude/longitude of the person viewing the site.


I have this already working in Joomla 1.5.7 where you can localize a user with special messages depending on his ip no (country, city etc).

--------
http://www.maxmind.com/app/geolitecity

GeoLite City

GeoLite City is similar to the GeoIP City database, but is less accurate. Should you require greater accuracy, GeoIP City is a drop-in replacement for GeoLite City. GeoLite City is an ideal cost-effective solution, since it is as accurate as many other commercial geolocation solutions.

We are unable to offer direct support for GeoLite users. Please visit GeoIP Support Center for available documentation and MaxMind Forum if you encounter problems.

Under the license agreement, all advertising materials and documentation mentioning features or use of this database must display the following acknowledgment: "This product includes GeoLite data created by MaxMind, available from http://www.maxmind.com/."

Installation details

GeoLite City is offered in binary format, a highly optimized database that supports fast lookups using our Open Source API code. We recommend using the binary files with APIs instead of importing the CSV files into SQL because the binary format is more efficient and is easy to set up and use.

• Binary Format Installation Instructions
• Download the latest GeoLite City Binary Format (30 MB when uncompressed, last updated October 4th, 2011, next update November 1st, 2011)

CSV Format

Our CSV format enables you to load the database into a SQL database. The GeoIP City and GeoLite City use the same locationIDs, so the GeoIP City CSV files can be used as a drop in replacement for GeoLite City CSV files without having to change the locationIDs. Note that queries made against the CSV data imported into a SQL database can take up to a few seconds. If performance is an issue, the binary format is much faster, and can handle thousands of lookups per second.

• Instructions on how to use our CSV databases with a SQL database.
• Download the latest GeoLite City CSV Format (130 MB when uncompressed)

IPv6 GeoLite City database

Our C, C#, PHP, Java, and Perl APIs support IPv6 lookups using our free GeoLite IPv6 City database. We will continue adding support for other APIs as IPv6 gets more widely deployed.

GeoLite City and GeoIP City Comparison

Note: Both databases contain country, region, area code, metro code, city, and postal code information. In addition, some IP addresses will be marked as anonymous proxies and satellite providers.

	GeoLite City	GeoIP City
Cost	Free	$370 initial, $90 per month updates
Coverage	Worldwide	Worldwide
Accuracy	Over 99.5% on a country level and 79% on a city level for the US within a 25 mile radius. More details	Over 99.8% on a country level and 83% on a city level for the US within a 25 mile radius. More details
Redistribution	Free, subject to GPL/LGPL for APIs and database license. Commercial redistribution licenses are available	Please contact us.
Updates	Updated monthly, at the beginning of each month	Updated monthly. For binary format, weekly updates, automated updates available by using geoipupdate program included with C API

PERFECT - cool black horizontal and vertical scrollbars

PERFECT - cool black horizontal and vertical scrollbars

REPLACES browsers, and puts all the content into a div!!!!

4. Scrollbars v2

Scrollbar Paper does not replace browser’s default scrollbar.
Instead, it covers it with a custom scrollbar, like paper on a wall: that is why it is called Scrollbar Paper
The benefit of this approach is that the way browser’s default scrollbar behaves is not modified: mouse wheel support, text selection and scrolling performance are the same as usual.

Besides, Scrollbar Paper’s HTML does not wrap itself around its content, and thus, does not eventually break it: for instance, when jScrollPane might reset/break Flash/SWF movies, Scrollbar Paper will not.

Finally, Scrollbar Paper is refreshed regularly, thus keeping adapted to its content.

no horizontal scroll bars in Iframe

http://www.iframehtml.com/faq.html

No Horizontal Scrolling iFrame Code:

You must have access to the internal frame’s code to implement this solution. The internal iframe should have the following in its style:
<style type="text/css"> body { width:98%; overflow-x: hidden; } </style>

Now the parent frame’s iframe tag may look like this:
<iframe src="http://www.YourSource.com" width="650px" scrolling="auto" frameborder="0" height="1000">An iFrame capable browser is required to view this content.</iframe>

That is all it takes to remove those pesky horizontal scroll bars and have a neat iframe that will only scroll vertically. You may modify some of these sizes and proportions to fit your page layout, but the code above works in all major browsers.

About wpStoreCart: wpStoreCart is an open source eCommerce solution for WordPress that allows you to quickly and easily sell your physical and digital downloads using your new or existing WordPress website. wpStoreCart was developed only after we had spent a few years being totally frustrated with other WordPress eCommerce plugins, which we found to be generally either unprofessional, hard to use, or would break every time we’d upgrade the plugin, not to mention most of them cost a lot money. So, in March 2010, we began developing wpStoreCart to be THE free, open source, easy to use, yet extremely powerful eCommerce plugin for WordPress that everyone has always dreamed of. That's a difficult thing to achieve, and to that end, we're always looking for criticisms, suggestions, and tips on how we can make our plugin the best. Please feel free to contact us on our support forums. We also do custom WordPress themes, plugins, modifications, consultation, business support, and more.
