Secure a Directory on Your Website

Ever wanted a specific directory in your website to be available only to people who you want it to be available to? There are numerous methods to password protecting areas of your website. htaccess (Hypertext Access) is about as secure as you can or need to get in everyday life, though there are ways above and beyond even that of htaccess.

Create .htaccess and .htpasswd files with .htaccess Password Generator and upload them to your website.

* This will only work on Linux hosting that support htaccess.

Yahoo! Photos is Closing

Yahoo! Photos is closing on September 20, 2007.

Until then, Yahoo! offers you the opportunity to move to another photo sharing service (Flickr, KODAK Gallery, Shutterfly, Snapfish, or Photobucket). Yahoo! makes the transfer real simple, and with a couple clicks Yahoo! automatically move your photos. You can also download your original-resolution photos back to your computer.

Please make your decision by Thursday, September 20, 2007, at 9 p.m. PDT. After that time, any photos remaining in Yahoo! Photos will be deleted.

Web Statistics for JAlbum

I'll explain here how you can view web statistics for your JAlbum web album. My example is based on Google Analytics web service but you can use any other web statistics service as well.

1. After installing JAlbum on your computer, there are index.htt and slide.htt files. Usually, these files located in "C:\Program Files\JAlbum7.2\skins\" skin name " folder.


2. Edit these files with notepad or some other text editor. Insert Google Analytics tracking code immediately before the </body> tag. Save and close these files.
   


3. Open JAlbum software and make an album. Now all pages include Google Analytics tracking code.


4. The last step is to upload the web album to your website. You can upload it with free ftp program or publish it through JAlbum program.

JAlbum Integrated with Wordpress

The Wordpress - JAlbum plugin allows to integrate JAlbum galleries directly into wordpress posts. Either, you can use the JAlbum theme as is, or you can pull the files directly into the WordPress theme you use, disregarding the theme of the generated JAlbum gallery.

You can integrate complete albums, partial albums or single images from any JAlbum on your server.

It is also possible to integrate complete JAlbums from different servers - though this will not give you the possibility of using the Wordpress theme (in which case the gallery files have to be placed on the same server).

Just download the plugin and unzip it into the wp-content/plugins folder. Setup is done through the Wordpress settings control panel, and the Wordpress editor toolbar is automatically expanded with the new JAlbum functionality.

Download JAlbum plugin for Wordpress.

CSS Property Min Height Doen't Work in Internet Explorer 6

The min-height property sets the minimum height of an element. But for some reason this property doesn't work in Internet Explorer 6.

Instead use this code:
p {
min-height: 10px;
}

Use this solution:
p {
min-height:10px;
height:auto !important;
height:10px;
}

I've checked this solution with Internet Explore 6, Internet Explorer 7 and Firefox, works fine.
