Clearing Cache in IE for AJAX

January 29, 2009 – 9:10 pm

This is very disturbing. Our good friend FireFox has no problem. But for Internet Explorer, they will always cache the AJAX content and this results the AJAX content that is being fetched is obsolete and not the latest.

To resolve this, assuming u are using PHP, add the following code on the start of the AJAX page:

1
2
3
4
5

<?php
header("Last-Modified: " . gmdate("D, d M Y H:i:s") . " GMT");
header("Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate");
header("Cache-Control: post-check=0, pre-check=0", false);
header("Pragma: no-cache");

Changed my web hosting

January 24, 2009 – 5:51 am

As promised, I changed my web hosting because the previous web host uptime is very low and it take ages to load.

With the economic not doing good, I have constraint my budget in web hosting.

Check it out:

Pretty good eh?

However, I still need time to monitor the quality because the deal is way too cheap!

Bye Bye RP

January 23, 2009 – 11:57 pm

Today marks the official last day of my life in Republic Polytechnic, even though I do not goes to school. Finally, my 3 years tertiary life has ended.

I have gained a lot of things from RP, and understand how RP system sucks despite the propagation of what Problem-based Learning is. It’s all bullshit I tell you. Luckily, I managed to get high GPA and get into University I supposed.

For now, I will wait for the admission of either NUS or NTU. Hopefully I can enter NUS because NTU is VERY and REALLY far from my house! I need to change 3 expressways to get there. I think by the time I reach school, I left with half life. Coming back home, then I am dead. I certainly don’t want such a tiring life.

Lastly, remember to congratulate me from graduating from RP. And wish me good luck for my upcoming National Service ~

Allow embed object code in CodeIgniter

January 15, 2009 – 7:56 pm

Of course, you don’t need to even edit or bypass the input class libraries.

Simple do the following on the views when displaying embedded object code like from YouTube and etc:

1

echo str_replace(array('&lt;', '&gt;'), array('<', '>'), $embed_filed);

connecting C# to MySQL

January 13, 2009 – 8:59 pm

This is pretty hard initially as C# also has OLEDB, ODBC drivers to communicate with a database. However, I’ll be using none of these. Let me guide you through as I have enlightened:

Firstly, download the latest MySQL Connector/Net, for connecting to MySQL from .NET

Secondly, add a reference to your project, it is probably in C:\\Program Files\\MySQL\\MySQL Connector Net 5.0.7\\Binaries\\.NET 2.0 folder (it depends on your connector version), add the MySql.Data.dll file as a reference.

Thirdly, make your connection string, the following code will shows a standard MySQL connection string.

1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
11
12
13

using MySql.Data.MySqlClient;
 
class Program
{
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        string my_connection = "SERVER=localhost;" +
            "DATABASE=rabbit;" +
            "UID=root;" +
            "PASSWORD=;";
        MySqlConnection connection = new MySqlConnection(my_connection);
    }
}

Lastly, you can make use of the Connector methods and class by reading Connector/NET Examples and Usage Guide

This marks the end of my simple tutorial in setting up C# with MySQL. When I am free, I will do how a tutorial on how to retrieve data or maybe how C# interact with MySQL !

Auto load sub-title in Media Player Classic

January 10, 2009 – 11:06 am

In Media Player Classic, a subtitle file with .SRT extension can be load automatically by the player.

We just simply rename the subtitle file exactly the same with the movie file and vice-versa.

Example as shown below:
Free Image Hosting at www.ImageShack.us

So when you play the movie, you should be able to see subtitle embedded into the movie!
