Previously I posted about a gentle introduction to php.

To make your .htm or .html pages process like they were .php, just add this line to your .htaccess file:

AddType application/x-httpd-php .html .php .htm

Or use:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^index.html /index.php

The .htaccess directory-level configuration file can also be used for:

Custom Error Pages
Password protection
Redirects
Prevent hotlinking of images
Preventing Directory Listing

Ever since Netscape Navigator 2.0, many major web sites have used “JavaScript Remotes” as a convenient navigation tool. These first-generation remotes were based entirely on JavaScript. First you call a function to launch the remote, then another one, when the user clicks a link or submits a form, to load an URL in the main window. Until someone uncovered an undocumented feature, which made targeting the main window from within a remote as simple as loading a link in a frame.

1&1 is offering limited no cost .info domain registrations with free privacy protection. You can take advantage of this offer by following this link.

On the main page you’ll see a “Limited Time Offer” box. Click on it.

In the middle of the page that follows you’ll see a box labeled “Domains” with “Instant Domain” as a subheading. Click on the small “sign up” link near the bottom righthand corner of that box.

This gets you to the “Instant Domain” page. Click on the “sign up” button on this page. You should now be on a page that says “Register Free .info Domains”.

From here you select the domains you want to register. They’ll be added to your shopping cart for zero dollars. There’s a limit of 5 domains.

Previously we detailed the Enkoderform method to avoid spam from posting your email address on the web.

Here’s another technique using the :before and :after pseudo-elements of CSS. The reader’s comments are pretty interesting.

A lot of people seem to be missing the point of this article. What’s described is nothing more than a proof-of-concept technique; it is by no means perfect, or even the best way of masking your email address. I wrote this because it demonstrates some under-used CSS features that happen to solve a common problem. In the worst case scenario, it works as well or better than most other techniques, and at full steam, it’s pretty nifty.
