Programming and scripting topics.
Today I saw something new for me:
a[title=”Home”] {
font-style:italic;
}
And it’s applied to an element which has the title Home in my case it was:
<a title=”Home” href=”#”>Something</a>
So there is a way to style elements by their title, no need to add a class or id in such case.
I tested on most browsers and it works exceps of IE6, but who cares of this old browser.
Easy answer for most installations:
There are probably lots of solution in the net but I think this plugin is fastest and the easiest one: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/comment-link-manager/
Unfortunately, it requires a change to the core.
File: administrator/components/com_contact/admin.contact.php
Line: 265 (as at Joomla 1.5.20), which reads:
Change JREQUEST_ALLOWHTML to JREQUEST_ALLOWRAW.
Directions
1. Use a MySQL utility such as phpMyAdmin or MySQL Query Browser .
2. Open the correct database and select the table, jos_users . (Change default table prefix, ‘jos_’ to your table prefix if it is different.)
3. Select the record (or table row) for your administrator account (The first admin account, created by default, has an id of 62).
4. Copy and paste a known MD5 hash, such as one of the samples provided with this FAQ, into the password field. Warning: You must paste the password’s hash value, not the password itself. You can use any of the following password = hash pairs, or create your own using one of the tools listed below.
password = “MD5 hash of password”
——————————————————
admin = 21232f297a57a5a743894a0e4a801fc3
secret = 5ebe2294ecd0e0f08eab7690d2a6ee69
OU812 = 7441de5382cf4fecbaa9a8c538e76783
5. Save the record.
6. Point your browser to your site and log as the administrator using your new password.
7. Once logged in, Joomla will convert your md5 hash to a salted md5 hash, but you should change the password again to one that only you know.
Create a button on the movie.
Give a name to the instance of the button with the name button.
Put this code on the first frame of your flash movie.
button.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, btn_function);
var button_request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://mysite.com");
function btn_function(event: MouseEvent)
{
navigateToURL(button_request, "_blank");
}
Open the .fla file with the flash movie and add to the first frame of the movie these 2 lines of action script:
Stage.align = “TL”;
Stage.scaleMode = “noScale”;
Where TL means top-left. In my case it was TR.

Open index.php of you remplate:
1. Check the top of your index.php file, it should be changed like this one or just use this code:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC “-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN” “http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd”>
<html xmlns=”http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml” xml:lang=”<?php echo $this->language; ?>” lang=”<?php echo $this->language; ?>” dir=”<?php echo $this->direction; ?>” >
<head>
<jdoc:include type=”head” />
<link rel=”stylesheet” href=”<?php echo $this->baseurl ?>/templates/<?php echo $this->template ?>/css/template.css” type=”text/css” />
</head>
2. Replace all php codes relating to modules.
This is an example of an old code <?php mosLoadModules ( ‘header’, -3 ); ?>
Replace with this <jdoc:include type=”modules” name=”header” style=”xhtml” />
3. Replace the mainbody code from <?php mosMainBody(); ?> to <jdoc:include type=”component” style=”xhtml” />
4. Rename the template_css.css file in your /css folder to template.css
5. If there is stuff like this one on yout code:
<?php if (mosCountModules(‘user1’)) : ?>
Chenge ot to look like this: <?php if($this->countModules(‘user1’)) : ?>
6. Check if there are anouther external files like footer.php for example. If there are just open and remove some source code starting with MOS
This should be it 🙂
Steps:
1. Open phpMyAdmin and add the additional field to the jos_vm_manufacturer:
ALTER TABLE `jos_vm_manufacturer` ADD `mf_image` TEXT CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_general_ci NULL AFTER `mf_desc`
2. Open manufacturer.manufacturer_form.php and add additional row for the new field:
<tr>
<td width="22%" align="right" valign="top"><br/><br/>Image:</td>
<td width="78%" ><br/><br/><?php
editorArea( 'editor2', $db->f("mf_image"), 'mf_image', '300', '150', '70', '25' )
?></td>
</tr>
3. Open ps_manufacturer.php and add the new field to the add and update functions the same way like the field mf_desc is added (just copy the line and add a new row after but for mf_image)
4. Open shop.manufacturer_page.php and do the same like in the previous step also don’t forget to add mf_image in the select statement for the database
5. If needed add the new field in the shop.manufacturer.tpl.php
6. Open shop.browse.php and add:
$browsepage_lbltext = $db->f("mf_image");
$tpl->set( 'browsepage_lblimage', $browsepage_lblimage );
After:
$browsepage_lbltext = $db->f("mf_desc");
$tpl->set( 'browsepage_lbltext', $browsepage_lbltext );
Also here don’t forget to add the mf_image into the select statement above.
7. Then edit the browse_header_manufacturer.tpl.php add a field like $browsepage_lbltext but for the image
This is it…
