  Disable hot-linking: substitute image not loading?         


Author: andrew
Date: Jun 8, 2008 19:42

Hi,

Having discovered a few bandwidth leachers I have successfully
disabled image hot-linking with a .htaccess file as follows:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %%{HTTP_REFERER} !^$
RewriteCond %%{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://www.andrews-corner.org.*$ [NC]
RewriteRule \.(gif|jpg|jpeg|png)$ http://www.andrews-corner.org/shrek.jpg [R]

But the shrek image does not appear on the leechers pages. Have I made
a syntax error here?

Andrew

  apache mod rewrite problem         


Author: Grouchy.Oldgit
Date: Jun 8, 2008 17:33

I have a site hosted with godaddy that uses a database to hold
content
which is then dynamically loaded into a fixed template by calling the
url such as mydomain.com/content.php?artid=3 etc.

It would be nice if users could enter urls as mydomain.com/articles/3
etc which I believe is achievable with apache mod rewrite. I
therefore
added an .htaccess file contining:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^articles/([^/\.]+)/?$ content.php?artid=$1 [L]

When this didn't work I googled the problem to find the suggestion
that with godaddy it was necessary to add an additional command, ie:

Options -MultiViews
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^articles/([^/\.]+)/?$ content.php?artid=$1 [L]

However, this still returns a "page cannot be found error".

Any suggestions?

  How to get an RSS feed from Craigslist????         


Author: cycling22

How to get an RSS feed from Craigslist????

How can I get an RSS feed from Craigslist????

I'd like to setup a simple RSS feed on Craigslist for a
particular piece of equipment. When it is finally
offered for sale, I would get an email. Easy.

This should be simple enough. However, I keep searching,
and searching and searching. But I still have not found out
just exactly HOW do I get an RSS feed from Craigslist.

I get lots and lots of definitions as to what an RSS
feed is. But nothing on how to set it up.

Do I need an account? From which website?
Do I need special software? Which one?

Could someone be so kind as to lay out the exact
steps to do this?

Thanks a lot!

Learn more CSS before using absolute positioning. For instance, the
"float" property.
Absolute positioning has very rare application. Its use is indicative of
a poor understanding of markup and CSS, and almost always results in
fragile layouts.

Very nice - I like it. But as others have said, the contract may be a
bit little for some people. And it's way too lengthy. No one is going
to read to the end.
