CSS Grid Builder is an online GUI for customizing the YUI Grids CSS – a lightweight CSS framework developed by Yahoo! that comes with over 1000 page layout combinations. The CSS Grid Builder allows you to rapidly generate a CSS-based, web-standards compliant page layout in a matter of minutes (or even seconds). Once you’ve got the page layout the way you want it, all you have to do is press "Show Code" and it generates the HTML for you.
You don’t even have to host the CSS file on your web server (saving you some bandwidth and maintenance hassles), the generated code links to the appropriate stylesheet found on Yahoo!’s Developer Network API.

 Clean AJAX

Clean AJAX speeds up Ajax development by cutting down the amount of code you have to write (and rewrite), giving you access to common and proven design patterns used in Ajax applications. Clean AJAX can be used with any server-side technology such as PHP, RoR, and .NET because it’s JavaScript-based. Check out the demo page so you can see Clean AJAX in action.

SHOW DATABASES; 3. Utilize the photo_album database. USE photo_album; ---- If Need be, recreate the database and load the SQL data in that will be used for this lab CREATE DATABASE photo_album; SOURCE /tmp/photo_album.sql; 4.

Data Encryption

Data encryption is the process of scrambling stored or transmitted information so that it is unintelligible until it is unscrambled by the intended recipient. The intended recipient can then decode (or decrypt) the information. PHP offers multiple means to make this happen. However, none of these solutions are very effective without the applications running on secure servers and connections. The following are a list of the more common encryption functions in PHP: • md5() - MD5 is a third-party hash algorithm that PHP can use to create a digital fingerprint of a piece of data. It is next to impossible to (efficiently) recover the original text when a piece of data has been encrypted with the md5 hash algorithm. It is also vastly unlikely that any different text string will create an identical hash - a 'hash collision'. These properties make hashes ideally suited for storing an application's passwords because although an attacker may compromise a part of the system...
