Codes for Web Safe Colors

November 10, 2011 By Leave a Comment

When developing themes or doing anything that requires colors, it’s important that you know the hex codes of the color you want to use. They are the 6-number codes that represent a specific color which you use on your CSS.

The list below shows the codes for web safe colors. I kept this list on my usb drive and always had seach from the net numerous times as I don’t bring my usb drive with me all the time. Take note that most of the monitors and browsers can now display millions of colors and shades. Go somewhere else to get all of them hehe

UTF_FILE and Directories

November 9, 2011 By Leave a Comment

In case you are maintaining a pl/sql program developed by someone else and that program writes into a file, then basically that file is written to a folder/directory. And since the directories are saved in codes, you have to find the meaning (or location) of those codes. The code below will help you display the information required.

SELECT * FROM ALL_DIRECTORIES;

The query above will display all the directories accessible to the current user. They are folders in the server where you can write your output files. For some reason, I forgot about this twice already and had to scour the web to find it. The problem is, I also forgot the keywords. So, I’m writing it now.

To register new directories, you can follow the example below.

Example
create or replace directory mydir as 'c:\mydirectory';

To use, run the code below.

declare
f utl_file.file_type;
begin
f := utl_file.fopen('MYDIR', 'myfilename.txt', 'w');
utl_file.put_line(f, 'just another line text 1');
utl_file.put_line(f, 'just another line text 2');
utl_file.fclose(f);
end;

How To Cancel Subscription on Paypal

June 28, 2011 By Leave a Comment

The menu on PayPal dashboard is very confusing to say the least. You have to dig into the menu to be able to find what exactly you are looking for. Case in point is the subscription. You’ll have to click several links just to see what your current subscriptions are. So for the benefit of mankind, I’m listing the steps down.

How To Install Subversion on CentOS

June 12, 2011 By Leave a Comment

I finally decided to setup an online version control and chose subversion (instead of cvs which I use on my macbook). Initially, I was thinking of subscribing to github but the prospect of paying monthly did not bode well especially that it would only be me who will be updating the codes. Github has a free service though. But that’s if you open-source your code.

Resizing Photos in Mac OS X

March 24, 2011 By Leave a Comment

And then there’s another little bugger in my quest to . Here’s the steps I use now.
1. Open the image/photo in the Preview
2. From the top menu, Click on Tools–>Adjust Size

3. Enter the new dimension

It is so damn simple…. if you know how.

What I like most about it is the fact that I did not need to install any new software (like WinXP PowerTools). The stock Mac OSX already has this tool.

How To Repair Ubuntu Netbook After Upgrade Problem (WUBI)

January 18, 2011 By Leave a Comment

As I have posted earlier, Ubuntu upgrade broke my installation and I had to reinstall everything from scratch. And guess what, it happened again! This time, I’ve some important files in the filesystem. And since it happened the second time, it can no longer be said as an accident. Something breaks during the upgrade and it must solved or at least mitigated the next time. And apparently, I’m not the only one affected and there are at least three bugs reported already.

Here’s the list of bugs.
610898
Bug 13288
653134

Meanwhile, a solution/workaround has been posted at ubuntu forum. Click here to view the thread. If you are too lazy to open yet another window/tab, here’s what fixed my Ubuntu install.

Problem #2:

You have Wubi installed and are able to boot Windows normally.

However, attempting to boot Ubuntu leads to a number of possible failures including, but not limited to, the following:

computer reboots without user interaction, a black screen with or without any error messages, loadfont errors, file not found errors, and the like.

These issues affect the following versions: 10.04, 10.04.1, and 10.10

The solutions for each version are somewhat different and will be noted next to the relevant solution.

Solution #1 (10.04):

If it is a 10.04 install, the fix is to boot an Ubuntu LiveCD/USB, loop mount the wubi root.disk and manually edit the grub.cfg file.

Here’s the steps

sudo mkdir /media/win
sudo mount /dev/sda1 /media/win
sudo mount -o loop /media/win/ubuntu/disks/root.disk /mnt
sudo cp /mnt/boot/grub/grub.cfg /mnt/boot/grub/grub.cfg.copy
sudo chmod +w /mnt/boot/grub/grub.cfg
gksu gedit /mnt/boot/grub/grub.cfg

Note, this is only applicable for WUBI.

As part of hardening your WordPress installation, it is recommended that we change the prefix of our WP tables. In that way, the ‘bad guys’ and script kiddies will have to guess the name of your tables.

Oracle NVL Equivalent in MySQL

December 28, 2009 By 2 Comments

Here’s the MySQL equivalent of Oracle’s NVL and MSSQL/Sybase’s ISNULL functions.

Syntax


IFNULL(expr1,expr2)

Usage

If expr1 is not NULL, IFNULL() returns expr1; otherwise it returns expr2. Take note that IFNULL() returns a numeric or string value, depending on the context in which it is used. I haven’t used it for other data types yet but I reckon it would have the same results. That is to return the same data type as that of expr1. Another important thing to remember is that expr1 and expr2 should have the same data type
