Introduction
phpMyAdmin is a free software tool written in PHP intended to handle the administration of MySQL over the World Wide Web. phpMyAdmin supports a wide range of operations with MySQL. The most frequently used operations are supported by the user interface (managing databases, tables, fields, relations, indexes, users, permissions, etc), while you still have the ability to directly execute any SQL statement.

phpMyAdmin comes with a wide range of documentation and users are welcome to update our wiki pages to share ideas and howtos for various operations. The phpMyAdmin team will try to help you if you face any problem, you can use variety of support channels to get help.

phpMyAdmin is also very deeply documented in a book written by one of developers – Mastering phpMyAdmin for Effective MySQL Management, which is available in English, Czech, German and Spanish.

To ease usage to a wide range of people, phpMyAdmin is translated into 62 languages and supports both LTR and RTL languages.

Since version 3.0.0, phpMyAdmin joined the GoPHP5 initiative and dropped compatibility code for older PHP and MySQL versions; version 3 and later requires at least PHP 5.2 and MySQL 5. To use with older PHP or MySQL versions, use the older (but still maintained) branch of 2.x releases, which you can find on the download page.

phpMyAdmin has won several awards. Among others, it was chosen as the best PHP application in various awards and every year wins the SourceForge.net Community Choice Awards as "Best Tool or Utility for SysAdmins".

phpMyAdmin is a more than ten years old project with stable and flexible code base, to find out more about the project and its history see separate page.

Safari 5.0.3

Tue, 15 Feb 2011 06:54:57 -0700

Safari Official Website: http://www.apple.com/safari/

Release Notes
Apple® today released Safari® 5, the latest version of the world’s fastest and most innovative web browser, featuring the new Safari Reader for reading articles on the web without distraction, a 30 percent performance increase over Safari 4,* and the ability to choose Google, Yahoo! or Bing as the search service powering Safari’s search field. Available for both Mac® and Windows, Safari 5 includes improved developer tools and supports more than a dozen new HTML5 technologies that allow web developers to create rich, dynamic websites. With Safari 5, developers can now create secure Safari Extensions to customize and enhance the browsing experience.

“Safari continues to lead the pack in performance, innovation and standards support,” said Philip Schiller, Apple’s senior vice president of Worldwide Product Marketing. “Safari now runs on over 200 million devices worldwide and its open source WebKit engine runs on over 500 million devices.”

Safari Reader makes it easy to read single and multipage articles on the web by presenting them in a new, scrollable view without any additional content or clutter. When Safari 5 detects an article, users can click on the Reader icon in the Smart Address Field to display the entire article for clear, uninterrupted reading with options to enlarge, print or send via email.

Powered by the Nitro JavaScript engine, Safari 5 on the Mac runs JavaScript 30 percent faster than Safari 4, three percent faster than Chrome 5.0, and over twice as fast as Firefox 3.6.* Safari 5 loads new webpages faster using Domain Name System (DNS) prefetching, and improves the caching of previously viewed pages to return to them more quickly.

Safari 5 adds more than a dozen powerful HTML5 features that allow web developers to create media-rich experiences, including full screen playback and closed captions for HTML5 video. Other new HTML5 features in Safari 5 include HTML5 Geolocation, HTML5 sectioning elements, HTML5 draggable attribute, HTML5 forms validation, HTML5 Ruby, HTML5 AJAX History, EventSource and WebSocket.

The new, free Safari Developer Program allows developers to customize and enhance Safari 5 with extensions based on standard web technologies like HTML5, CSS3 and JavaScript. The Extension Builder, new in Safari 5, simplifies the development, installation and packaging of extensions. For enhanced security and stability, Safari Extensions are sandboxed, signed with a digital certificate from Apple and run solely in the browser.

Pricing & Availability
Safari 5 is available for both Mac OS® X and Windows as a free download at http://www.apple.com/safari. Safari 5 for Mac OS X requires Mac OS X Leopard 10.5.8 or Mac OS X Snow Leopard® 10.6.2 or later. Safari 5 for Windows requires Windows XP SP2, Windows Vista or Windows 7, a minimum 256MB of memory and a system with at least a 500 MHz Intel Pentium processor. Full system requirements and more information on Safari 5 can be found at http://www.apple.com/safari. The Safari Developer Program is free to join at developer.apple.com/programs/safari.

*Performance will vary based on system configuration, network connection and other factors. All testing conducted by Apple in May 2010 on an iMac® 3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo system running Mac OS X 10.6.3, with 4GB of RAM. JavaScript benchmark based on the SunSpider 0.9.1 JavaScript Performance test.

Apple ignited the personal computer revolution with the Apple II, then reinvented the personal computer with the Macintosh. Apple continues to lead the industry with its award-winning computers, OS X operating system, and iLife, iWork and professional applications. Apple leads the digital music revolution with its iPods and iTunes online store, has reinvented the mobile phone with its revolutionary iPhone and App Store, and has recently introduced its magical iPad which is defining the future of mobile media and computing devices.

Internet Explorer 9 Release Candidate

Sat, 12 Feb 2011 08:18:45 -0700

Internet Explorer Official Website: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/interne...fault.aspx

Release Notes
Today Microsoft unveiled the Internet Explorer 9 Release Candidate which, after months of testing and feedback, is feature complete. The Release Candidate introduces several new features that build on the browser’s core themes of speed, streamlined design, privacy and security, and interoperability.

Unstable: Internet Explorer 9 Release Candidate 32-bit or 64-bit
Released On: Feb. 10, 2011
Size: 37 MB

Changelog

Introduction
Performance Improvements

Between the Internet Explorer 9 Beta and Internet Explorer 9 RC releases over 2,000 changes have been made to improve browser performance for real customer scenarios. Internet Explorer 9 RC starts faster, loads webpages faster, and allows you to interact with webpages faster than ever before.

Improved JavaScript Engine Performance

Chakra, the new JavaScript engine for Internet Explorer 9 RC, has continued to be tuned for the common patterns found across real-world websites. Chakra uses advanced techniques traditionally only found in desktop optimizing compilers. A byproduct of improving the performance of Chakra for real-world scenarios is that Internet Explorer 9 RC is now the fastest JavaScript engine on the WebKit SunSpider Benchmark.

Dynamic GPU Usage

Internet Explorer 9 RC now dynamically decides when to use GPU based rendering and when to use software based rendering based on the customer’s GPU and installed graphics driver, which ensure the fastest possible experience for all customers by default.

Industry Leading Power Consumption Levels

By leveraging the GPU for graphical computation, Internet Explorer 9 RC saves significant power and leads the industry in power consumption by allowing the CPU to sleep for longer durations. Internet Explorer 9 RC is also the only browser on the Windows platform that integrates with the Windows Power Options and respects customers’ power settings to conserve power and maximize battery life.

CMS Made Simple 1.9.3 Released

Tue, 14 Dec 2010 07:39:41 -0700

CMS Made Simple Official Website: http://www.cmsmadesimple.org/

Release Notes
Over the past few weeks the CMSMS Dev team has spent hundreds of man hours on the core to address long standing issues, and to fix anything that popped its ugly head up in 1.9.2. We intend to make CMSMS 1.9.3 a good, stable, friendly, fast version that our users could use for a good long time. This should allow us to persue other longer term, though related projects. To that end, there isn't much for new features; though there are a few new buttons and options here and there. The intent of this release was to apply bug fixes only, we were adamant that absolutely no features would 'sneak in', that would cause new issues, and we wanted to be able to distribute a .diff release with this version so we made sure that the database schema was not changed.

In this version, along with all of the regular bug fixes that we fix as we find, we endeavored to comb through the various bug trackers and at least address them in one way, shape, or form. Though not all bugs are 'fixed', there are a surprising number from as far back as 2007 that have been addressed in this version of CMS Made Simple. In addition our ever vigilant Quality Control team has kept a watchful eye on the forum and tested, reproduced, reported, and tested fixes on a number of issues found there.

Perhaps the biggest noticeable change in 1.9.3 is related to browser caching pages. This was actually a bug reported back in 2007 that we had reviewed numerous times previously but didn't quite know how to fix properly (and not break a bunch of other stuff). Well we figured it out. As of CMSMS 1.9.3 cache-able pages can now be cached by your browser, thus giving your visitors a perceived performance increase when re-visiting a page. There is a setting in the global settings page to specify how long those pages should be cached for. and of course, a 'Reload' will reload the latest version of the page. Pages without the 'cache-able' check-mark are not allowed to be cached by the browser.

In the name of caching and performance we've also improved the sample htaccess file (shipped as doc/htaccess.txt) to illustrate some common apache rules that can be used to optimize the performance of your site. We recommend that everybody at least review this file, and implement what they think is appropriate to their site.

The MenuManager has also been re-re-visited and we fixed a number of issues in it, including that pesky $node->parent problem that popped up in 1.9.2. This has been tested extensively, and should now be stable for a good long time.

We recommend you upgrade your websites to 1.9.3 at your earliest convenience so that you can take advantage of the new performance features, and the stability of the latest version of your favorite CMS.

Enjoy!

* As of this release only CMSMS 1.9.2 and CMSMS 1.9.3 are supported by the development team and in the 'official' boards on the forum.

Introduction
CMS Made Simple™ is an open source ( GPL) package first released in July 2004. Its built using PHP that provides website developers with a simple, easy to use utility to allow building small-ish (dozens to hundreds of pages), semi-static websites. Typically our tool is used for corporate websites, or the website promoting a team or organization, etc. This is where we shine. There are other content management packages that specialize in building portals, or blogs, or article based content, etc. CMS Made Simple™ can do much of this, but it is not our area of focus.
CMS Made Simple™ provides a mechanism for the website administrator to create and manage "pages", their layout, and their content. CMS Made Simple™ is unobtrusive.... You can create a table based layout, or a fully validating XHTML/CSS layout.
CMS Made Simple™ makes managing the navigation in your website a breeze... you can re-organize your pages any way you want, and navigations are automatically created from your page hierarchy. This tool makes creating numerous different navigations with the entire page hierarchy, or a subset of it "simple".
CMS Made Simple™ separates layout code from content code, so that editors can manage content without having to know much about how websites work, so that layouts can be easily edited and take effect on numerous pages, and can be easily shared. With CMS Made Simple™ you design once, and easily use that same design over and over again. Smarty (a php based templating engine) is used to provide most of the caching, templating, and logic capabilities. This basic building block also provides the ability for website administrators to virtually eliminate any duplication of code or content.
The Core package provides the ability to manage news articles, search functionality a contact form, a WYSIWYG editor (for your customers or editors) and numerous other built in functions. Additionally, there are hundreds of third party add-on tools that are quickly and easily installable to allow building websites with many different capabilities.
CMS Made Simple™ is built in PHP, and allows you to integrate many existing PHP scripts or PHP snippets into your website... Though you definitely don't need in-depth knowledge of PHP to use CMS Made Simple™.

Languages: PHP 5.2.4+, recommend PHP 5.2.12+
Database: MySQL 4.1+ or PostgreSQL 7 +
License: CMS Made Simple™ is an open source (GPL) package first released in July 2004.

IBD Micro CMS 3.5 released

Stable: IBD Micro CMS 3.5

Introduction
Micro CMS is the only program available that combines a search-engine-friendly WYSIWYG with a simple, AJAX-based content management system, making the management of your static web site incredibly easy and fast.

We have taken down the IBD Micro-CMS demo for now, due to some security issues. As soon as we are able, we will be putting it back up.

Here's how a typical session with Micro CMS would work:
1) The administrator logs in via a simple form.
2) They visit the page where they have content the need to change.
3) They click a button that is visible only to administrators, and without even having to refresh the page, they're offered a fully functional WYSIWIG to edit their content.
Once they get done editing the content, they click a save button. Again, no page refreshing is needed, so it works super-fast! Micro CMS comes with an installer program to make installation easy for just about anyone. You just need a hosting account with PHP and a MySQL database, and you're set!

Note: We have disabled the demo for now, but it should be back soon.
