Chmod 777
I'm installing OpenX Ad Server on my dedicated linux server and the install instructions says that I MUST chmod some directories to 777 for the software to work correctly. Is this safe to do? I really don't understand the consequences of this, even though I understand what file permissions are and h...

Baidu is heavy crawling all my sites. As it should. I get some traffic from it too.

Re: IE6 11% market share?
I kid you not, one of my sites has a 17% IE6 demographic. It makes me want to puke! I consider myself expert-level CSS'er and within 10 minutes can make just about any design look the same across FF3.6 and IE6, but it's that 10 minutes I hate with every passion in my heart!!! Don't you wish you coul...

Accessing another DB in WordPress...
Hi Guys, I wrote a custom WordPress plugin that needs access to another database in MySQL (seperate from the wordpress DB, in other words). I include my own, non-wp, mysqli_connect.php file in my wordpress installation which simply does the following: DEFINE ('DB_USER', 'XXXX'); DEFINE ('DB_PASSWO...

Facebook Fanbox in XHTML Strict Page
Hi guys.. My wordpress blog is XHTML Strict (no errors). And I want to add the Facebook Fanbox to it, but the code for the fanbox is invalid (no way to make it valid either). I want to embed the Facebook fanbox anyway, but wasn't sure what the consequences were (if any) of having that portion of my ...

To & or &, that is the question..
When writing XHTML, specifically creating anchor tags for links, should you use html entities for characters in URL's like &? For instance... if I'm writing XHTML, which is correct? <a href="http://www.example.com/index.php?a=2&z=9">Link</a> or <a href="http://www.example.com/...

IP Addresses : A better understanding..
I'm coding a "click counter" jump script in PHP and wish to prevent counting of "double clicks" or people that click one link a whole bunch of times in a short period. One way I was thinking to achieve this was by seeing if that particular visitor's IP address had clicked on the ...

Re: Checking a URL to see if it's broken
Thanks for the tip tasairis... is there any harm in using get_headers or cURL to check for broken links? In other words, will the other servers think I'm trying to hack, etc and ban me?

Checking a URL to see if it's broken
Hi guys, I have written a nice little PHP jump script (link redirection script) and would like to build into the backend (admin area) the ability to check links to see if they actually work or are broken (ie. do they return a 404 or 202?). Does anyone know how to use PHP to check the workingness of ...

I'm new to WordPress, but am a seasoned designer/developer. I'm playing around with the visual editor and when I highlight text and center align it (again, using the visual editor), it produces the following: <p style="text-align: center;">My test text</p> Are you kidding me? Is there some...
