If you have several google talk accounts like me :p , you may want to run multiple instances of google talk at once. Here’s how to do it. Many users, including myself, like to have several different personalities on IM–Work, play, etc. By default google talk with only allow you to run instance of the program at a time.

I had an idea about creating tutorial that will cover manipulating XML in PHP. The idea was to create some website that will use XML as a database.You can use it for password storage for your website admin and even your website configuration. In this tutorial we'll try to edit some data in XML. Our XML looks like this. Apple 10.25 15 We'll load item element and change it's content. Then we'll create new item element and append it to fruits after first item. So let's start. Loading Document And Elements First we have to create new DOMDocument class instance. We'll set XML version and encoding. Next we'll set formatOutput to true so we can have nice output. We'll also set preserveWhiteSpace to false because there is some bug in PHP that will not save nicely newly created elements. Now we just have to load our XML file. $xml = new DOMDocument('1.0', 'utf-8'); $xml->formatOutput = true; $xml->preserveWhiteSpace = fal...

HTTP authentication traditionally takes the form of .htaccess files scattered around various directories webmasters want to keep private. A typical .htaccess file, combined with a .htpasswd file, contains information about users that are allowed access to a directory and their password. Even though Apache allows you to customise these permissions, the system is far from flexible - hand-editing files each time you add users, or having to group authorised users together by password is a little behind the times. HTTP authentication is mostly just a matter of sending special HTTP headers to your client asking them to provide access codes, and it is straightforward to implement in PHP as long as you have configured PHP to run as an Apache module (see previous issue for our installation guide). Let's look at basic authentication by creating the file auth.php, which should look like this: if (!isset( $_SERVER [ 'PHP_AUTH_USER' ])) { header ( "WWW-Authenticat...

array headers_list ( void ) We already looked at the headers_sent() function, which tells us whether or not HTTP headers have already been sent to the client. This function duplicates that functionality, but, crucially, also returns headers that have yet to be sent, which when you think about it is a bit more useful. As you can see from the prototype, it takes no parameters, and returns an array. That array contains a numerically indexed list of the headers that are ready for sending, which means we can extend our previous example like this: header ( "Expires: Sat, 22 Dec 1979 05:30:00 GMT" ); echo "This is some text for output. " ; if (! headers_sent ( $filename , $linenum )) { // if no headers have been sent, send one // this will not execute, as we sent the Expires header. header ( "Location: www.yoursite.com" ); exit; } else { echo "Headers alr...

string header ( string header_to_send [, bool replace [, int http_response_code ]]) bool headers_sent ( [string &file [, int &line ]]) As well as status codes, there are a variety of special HTTP headers you can send that give you greater control. For example, the "Location" header instructs browsers to request a different URL, the "Content-Type" header tells browsers what kind of content they are about to receive, and the "WWW-Authenticate" header tells browsers that they need to send some authentication information to proceed. Each of these headers is combined with the HTTP status code to form the header of a HTTP response. This is then followed by two carriage return/line feeds, \r\n\r\n, then the actual content. For example, here is what I got when I sent a request to the popular hardware discussion site, tomshardware.com: HTTP/1.1 200 OK Date: Thu, 31 Jul 2003 21:35:46 GMT Server: Apache/1.3.26 (Unix) mod_...
