I have a friend looking for a GWT developer in Singapore. If you know of anyone, or think you are skilled in this area. Please post a comment below and I will get back to you.
Got this quick snippet of code from http://www.davidmorison.com/node/23 on how to find the current php script executing user. Useful to determine if suexec is running properly.
passthru("whoami");
?>
Simply go to your magento installation folder, locate the errors folder and you will find local.xml.sample, simply duplicate the file and rename it local.xml
As some of my friends might have known, I had been working on a project called SHIRTPAL which is an online fashion retail venture dealing with custom tailored dress shirts.
Today I am happy to announce that we are having our first event this weekend on the 6th February, Saturday in Singapore where we are inviting people to come down to have their measurements taken by our professional tailor from Singapore and also our Bangkok tailor who has flown in for the event.
We also thought it would be nice to share some knowledge on dress shirts like what to wear and how to do color coordination with your pants and ties etc. so we put together a 15 minutes short seminar (crash course) to get anyone started on custom dress shirts.
Shirt prices are based on their fabric and generally ranges from $55 – $75 with some premium ones at $95. We are giving a $10 discount at the event for any 2 shirts bought. SHIRTPAL’s fabric sources come from Bangkok and Japan.
More details and appointment booking information are available on the events page at http://sg.shirtpal.com/singapore

If you are trying to make MySQL backups in Virtualmin that create individual time-based folders like
12-11-2009
13-11-2009
…
You can turn on strftime substitution in the module config for MySQL in Webmin. This is off by default.
Here is the screen shot:
Cheers and happy new year to everyone

If you refer to facebook’s documentation at http://developers.facebook.com/docs/?u=facebook.jslib.FB.ApiClient.notifications_send, you will notice that there are no parameters to specify an app_to_user notification type. To achieve this, you have to use the callMethod from the apiClient.
Here is a code snippet on how this can be achieved in a Facebook Connect site.
<script src="http://static.ak.connect.facebook.com/js/api_lib/v0.4/FeatureLoader.js.php" type="text/javascript"></script> <script type="text/javascript"> FB_RequireFeatures(["XFBML"], function(){ FB.Facebook.init("API KEY", "relative_path_to/xd_receiver.htm"); FB.Facebook.apiClient.callMethod("notifications_send",{to_ids:[000000000],notification:"hello",type:"app_to_user"},function(){alert("notification sent");}); }); </script>
This code sends a notification from the app to the specified user ids. When the notification is done, a javascript alert box tells us the task is completed.
