Beginner’s guide to writing a Firefox extension « dale lane Last week, I shared my hack for syncing my browsing between my computer and mobile. It’s built around a Firefox extension, so I thought I’d share my notes on how I got it to work. This post is a complete sample for creating a Firefox extension to add a button to the browser toolbar. I’ve gone through each file you need, explaining what it’s for and giving a sample ready for copy-and-pasting. In my browser sync hack it sent the URL to my phone, but for this walkthrough I’m going with something simpler: opening the webpage in Internet Explorer. I’m not an expert at this stuff by any means, and I found a lot of useful code snippets on mozilla.org to get me going. Apart from the Internet Explorer bit itself (which is a little Windows-specific), the rest of this should all work wherever Firefox does. Step 1 – Prepare a development environment Create a working directory where you will work on your extension. Then create a text file in your Firefox extensions directory: (e.g. For example: <?

Creating Custom Pages - KickApps API Reference Depending on which apps you have enabled for your KIT Cloud Social-powered site, it comes with several pre-configured pages that you can customize to achieve the look and feel that meets your needs. For instance the Social Networking application comes with a “profile page,” “myHome” page and a “private message in-box” for each member of your site. The Video Sharing application has a “video upload page,” a “play page” and an “edit page” where your site’s members can upload, watch and interact with each others’ videos. With the Custom Pages application you can create an unlimited number of individual pages for your site, populated with whatever content you choose (text, images, flash widgets, javascript code, etc.). Each custom page retains your site’s global styling and navigation (including your header, background and footer), and the page’s contents are indexed by your site’s global search engine which makes all of your site’s content findable by your users.

What does your IP address say about you? | Defensive Computing Last week Google announced that they were protecting user privacy (their words not mine) by modifying IP addresses in their activity logs after 9 months. Fellow CNET blogger Chris Soghoian felt this was a sham because it ignored cookies, but it brings up an interesting point, just what does your IP address say about you? Or, in other words, does your IP address point to you? In some ways, an IP address does identify you or else there would be no need for Google to "anonymize IP addresses" in order to "address regulatory concerns" (again, their words not mine). What's an IP address? Every computer on a network has a unique number. To techies, IP addresses are 32 bit binary numbers, but to normal people they consist of four decimal numbers, each between zero and 255, separated by periods. In this scenario, the only thing that directly connects to the outside world is the router, each individual computer on the LAN goes through the router to get to the Internet. This brings up two points:
Search Engine Optimization on KickApps-powered websites - KickApps API Reference Search Engine Optimization (frequently referred to as SEO) is the practice of managing your website's content so that it appears in the results when people search for words and phrases in search engines like Google, Yahoo, and Bing.

So far we've optimized media play page and group page URLs, with more on the way and a special "custom short link manager" being alpha tested. The <title> tag in the HTML head contains descriptive, keyword-rich meta data which is unique to each KIT Cloud Social-powered page. All platform redirects are permanent 301 redirects.
A Silent Strength - Les trackbacks Introduction Présentation Les trackbacks ont été créés par Benjamin et Mena Trott en Août 2002. Suite à cela, une spécification a été écrite et est disponible sur le site de movabletype. Ce système correspond à du peer-to-peer entre sites web puisque des informations sont échangées sous le protocole HTTP (en méthode POST). Il y aura donc deux serveurs (ou deux sites) qui entreront en communication et qui échangeront des données. Idée des trackbacks L'idée des trackbacks est de relier des sites web entre eux, ou plus particulièrement des pages de sites web avec d'autres pages d'un autre site web qui ont le même sujet. On va prendre l'exemple de deux blogs : A et B qui parlent d'un sujet C (la LEN par exemple). L'interêt à retenir, c'est que les visiteurs du blog A auront une liste de liens à suivre si le sujet les intéresse. Exemples Concept datant de 2002, les trackbacks sont aujourd'hui très répandus sur la toile. Côté serveur local Principe Les différents paramètres Envoi des paramètres <? <? <?

XForms Essentials As an example, this section will develop an XForms solution for creating and editing a UBL purchase order. The first step is to define the initial instance data, which is a skeleton XML document that contains the complete structure of the desired final document, but with only initial data. This document serves as a template for newly-created purchase orders, and provides a framework on which to hang the rest of the form. Tip This complete example form is available online at Example 2.1 shows what a UBL purchase order document looks like. Figure 2.1. Example 2.1. The markup used by UBL seems slightly verbose, but this is necessary to capture all the small variations that occur in the purchase orders used by different organizations. The next step is to create an XForms document that will serve to edit the initial instance data. Example 2.2. <? Example 2.3. The xforms:model element is the container for the entire XForms Model.
