Developing a Login System with PHP and MySQL
Most interactive websites nowadays would require a user to log in into the website's system in order to provide a customized experience for the user. Once the user has logged in, the website will be able to provide a presentation that is tailored to the user's preferences.

PHP On-The-Fly!
PHP can be used for a lot of different things, and is one of the most powerful scripting languages available on the web. Not to mention it's extremely cheap and widely used. However, one thing that PHP is lacking, and in fact most scripting languages are, is a way to update pages in real-time, without having to reload a page or submit a form.

Using the PHP Crypt Function
The PHP crypt function is a one-way encryption function that lets you confirm that an entered password matches a stored encrypted one -- without having to decrypt anything. Chris Root explains how it works.
Protecting user names and passwords, not to mention financial or other personal information, can be a difficult job for any webmaster. Unfortunately there are an awful lot of people out there with nothing better to do than break into your system and steal information, or just wreak havok. One of the tools of the trade for information protection is encryption. There is a built-in function of the PHP language called crypt() which is easy to use and can help you secure information you want to protect.

Building Database-driven Applications with JSF
JavaServer Faces (JSF) is the long-awaited standard Java technology for creating Web-based user interfaces. In this article, I will explain how to build JSF forms, validate the form data with JSF, implement JSF actions that access the database, and present the SQL result sets with JSF. A relational database can be updated and queried using a low-level API (JDBC), an object-relational (O-R) mapping framework such as Oracle TopLink, or a JSP tag library (e.g. JSTL). These options are discussed throughout this article along with the main JSF features.
Application Overview
JSF is not just another tag library for Web development. It's an MVC-based framework that controls your Web forms and manages your JavaBeans. JSF provides a limited set of standard UI components, but you can use component libraries such as Oracle Application Development Framework (ADF) Faces, and you can also build your own custom components. Keep in mind that all these UI components can be used together within the same Web page because they are based on the standard JSF API.

Replicating Stored Procedure Execution
In OLTP environments, you often find batch jobs that move historical data to archive tables. In addition, there are often some batch jobs that purge historical data from the OLTP tables. These types of jobs can perform a lot of transactions and create additional overhead for the OLTP system, hurting overall performance, especially if you combine archiving and purging with SQL Server Transaction Replication.
One way to help avoid this overhead is to replicate stored procedure execution, instead of replicating all of the transactions from the publisher to the subscribers when archiving or purging data.

Generating ASP.NET Images on the Fly
ASP.NET and the .NET framework make the task of generating images on the fly very easy. With classic ASP, developers were forced to use third-party components like ASPImage and ASPPicture for dynamic image manipulation. Fortunately, with ASP.NET, those days are over. Various image manipulation capabilities are now built directly into the .NET framework classes.
The .NET Framework offers several classes for image generation and manipulation. ASP.NET developers can use these classes to draw various shapes, create text, and generate images in many different formats, including GIF, JPEG, PNG, etc.

How to Use JavaScript++
This article was inspired by some work I did for a web site a few years ago. One problem I encountered was that many of the core features of JavaScript that I wanted to use were only supported in the latest browsers.
At the time, IE6.0 was just being released and my requirements were to design the website to support browsers as old as IE4.0 and Netscape 4.7. In a landscape as rocky and variable as JavaScript with the existing browsers the maxim is often: “write once, pray it runs on most browsers.”

Making Your Code CLS Compliant
Is your C# code in line with the .NET Command Language Specification (CLS)? In this article, Sriram shows us how to check and fix our code for compliance.Introduction
If you are writing .Net classes, which will be used by other .Net classes irrespective of the language they are implemented, then your code should conform to the CLS [Common Language Specification]. This means that your class should only expose features that are common across all .Net languages. The following are the basic rules that should be followed when writing a CLS complaint C# code.
