Since yesterday when I installed Firefox 4 beta, its been a headache coz of incompatibility of Firefox 4 with my favorite add-ons that i used on Firefox 3.6.8. My laptop is very customized and i prefer my system to make my working easy.

So, to solve this Firefox 4 issue i tried a few tricks and the best is what i am sharing with you people. Let’s see HowTo use your older add-ons on Firefox 4!

1. Open Firefox 4.
2. In the Address field, type about:config and hit Enter.
3. Click on the disclaimer “I’ll be careful, I promise” button.
4. Right-click anywhere and from the menu, select New and Boolean from next menu.
5. A new, text  box will appear on your screen. Type in extensions.checkCompatibility.4.0b if you have Firefox 4.0 beta version. You can type extensions.checkCompatibility.4.0 if you have Firefox 4.0.
6. Click OK.
7. When prompted select False and click OK.
8. Restart Firefox 4 for the changes to take effect.

BTW, Yslow plugin doesn’t work with Firefox 4 but that’s the beauty coz Firefox 4 doesn’t let a plugin to crash browser.

First thought crossing my mind was simple, where did Paul Ceglia go for seven years to file his lawsuit claiming that he owns 84% of Facebook?

Paul explains to Bloomberg that he forgot he owned Facebook, now this answer is simple but ridiculous. More amazing is the story of his discovery of his Facebook rights. Paul went through his old files when he was arrested for defrauding customers of his wood-pellet business to discover his luck – the old contract. Now, he won’t be denied. “I’m going after him,” he says. “A deal’s a deal.”

Ceglia says he also has a year’s worth of emails that back up his claim, and adds, for good measure, that Mark Zuckerberg was a lazy employee. “He simply could not finish his work. He just could not keep a deadline,” Ceglia complains. But “he could code. I’d hire him today as a coder. If at some point in the future I start running Facebook, I guess I’m going to have to hire him to keep running the company.”

CodeIgniter, a powerful PHP framework with a very small footprint, built for PHP coders who need a simple and elegant toolkit to create full-featured web applications. CodeIgniter is for developers who work on shared hosting accounts and clients with deadlines, and tired of large and undocumented frameworks. Just check out the sample projects built on CodeIgniter and if you like it than download CodeIgniter from here!

Try CodeIgniter if you:

• want a framework with a small footprint.
• need exceptional performance.
• need broad compatibility with standard hosting accounts that run a variety of PHP versions and configurations.
• want a framework that requires nearly zero configuration.
• want a framework that does not require you to use the command line.
• want a framework that does not require you to adhere to restrictive coding rules.
• are not interested in large-scale monolithic libraries like PEAR.
• do not want to be forced to learn a templating language (although a template parser is optionally available if you desire one).
• eschew complexity, favouring simple solutions.
• need clear, thorough documentation.

If sometimes you mess up some characters in your database (wrong character encodings) or you want to change certain text in a certain table’s field, you can use below help a lot.

As you know that I use WordPress as my CMS choice. Many times when i finish up my work and if a client at that point ask to change (or i understood something wrong) some text that appeared many times in the site, it makes no sense to go to every post & do edit. So, here is small tip that can save you hours of work which I tested on MySQL5, PHP5 and phpMyAdmin 2.11.4.

Note: Before running any search and replace on your database, make a backup of your database, or you could loose your valuable data.

To search and replace a text string lets start step by step:

1. Logon to phpMyAdmin and click on your database name in left bar

2. Click the database name on which you want to run the search and replace query

3. In right hand, at the top of the window, click on the “SQL” tab. A window should pop-up like this:

4. In the text box, enter the following code. This is the generic setup, so edit to satisfy your needs:

UPDATE tablename SET tablefield = replace(tablefield, “SearchThis”, “ReplaceThis”);

for example when I used it on WordPress, it was:

UPDATE wp_posts SET post_content = replace (post_content,’goyalg’,'goelji’ );

You can also use the ‘WHERE’ statement, if you like. I will post the help about that soon.
