PHP Tip of the Day
When using classes if you include them they can end up being re-declared and you receive an error. Avoid this by using the include_once or require_once function!

Drupal Tip of The Day
If your using Drupal php sessions for anonymous users, you will need to make sure that performance caching is off. Otherwise it will prevent them from working. If your concerned about performance and you only need anonymous sessions for certain pages then the Drupal module CacheExclude will work nicely.

Protect Directories But Serve Files

Adobe's Past Trial Versions →
Adobe only has trial downloads for their latest versions of software so if your version is a previous one and you’ve lost the discs but still have the key it can seem all hope is lost.  Enter Technolux.

Character Sets and Databases
When exporting / importing databases make sure you have your character sets in order! Know what the database source and destination character set is set to. Ensure that when importing your database that you are implicitly telling it what character set to use.  What happens if you don’t is you’ll see strange characters appear in your content because they are not being interpeted...

You just have to hit play and sit there but loading can be an issue and when your trying to get conversions that can be a big deal. While images can load quicker, the user has to figure out for themselves what they are demoing as well as read...
