when you try to use indexOf javascript it will not work on ie
the perfect solution is to create simulated function if indexOf not exists

if(!Array.indexOf){
    Array.prototype.indexOf = function(obj){
        for(var i=0; i<this.length; i++){
            if(this[i]==obj){
                return i;
            }
        }
        return -1;
    }
}

hi all , sorry for not being posting for along time
but i was very busy , now i am back with a fantastic technology that makes code a native iphone or native android app with javascript possible
javascript is a handy language but its a client side language works only on browser or that we was thinking :) in the past few years javascript jumbed too much and entered many fields beside the normal browser thing , and we saw node.js and how to program a webserver in javascript and use websockets and we saw adobe air and how to use javascript to make desktop application .
now we continue by using javascript to make native app for smart mobile phones like iphone , android.
there is several liberaries can do that but one of them i liked too much , its a Titanium Appcelerator.
Titanium Appcelerator is a really amazing lib to make apps for mobile phone using javascript and access native features like phone book , GPS , gravity  and accelerometer
Titanium Appcelerator now has 1.5 million active developers and 21,7000 app and 20 million active user , yea thats is a really big stats
i will isA in the next posts show you how to download and install it and how to build your first app and we will go deep and dive a little into it and finally deploy your project and distribute it
so stay tunned

hi all some times you face problems in css adjustment and many differents between browsers
you can use SSI to target only IE browser but if you want to target Chrome you will have a serious issue here because there is no street way to do that

you can use some css hacks like:

1-:

body:nth-of-type(1) div.divname{width:500px;}

2-

@media screen and (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio:0) {
  div.divname{width:500px;} 
} 

and also you can target it via javascript

<script type="text/javascript">
var is_chrome = navigator.userAgent.toLowerCase().indexOf('chrome') > -1;
if(is_chrome){
document.write('<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/chrome.css" type="text/css" />');
}
</script>

thanks all see you in next tip

hi all
i tried to change my wordpress table prefix to add more secure to my blog and i done alter sql command to alter the table prefix and then i changed the table prefix in  wp-config.php

but i surprised that i couldnt log to my wp-admin panel it shows me an error
You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page.

after digging a while i discover that the issue is the wordpress store the user meta data and roles with the old prefix and so i have to replace the old prefix with the new one i found couple of tips to do such things thx dealasite

you have to fire two sql statement to do fix that

UPDATE `prefix_usermeta` SET `meta_key` = REPLACE( `meta_key` , 'wp_', 'prefix_' );

UPDATE `prefix_options` SET `option_name` = 'prefix_user_roles' WHERE `option_name` ='wp_user_roles' AND `blog_id` =0;

just replace the prefix_ with your new wordpress prefix
and all should be working now
thx all see you in next tip

hi all , we here now with a small design tip
did you wished before that you have the ability to rotate a html element image or div or even paragraph that was impossible in css 2 but here with css3 that is extremely easy
here is snippet to do it

div {
   -webkit-transform: rotate(-90deg);
   -moz-transform: rotate(-90deg);
   transform: rotate(-90deg);
   position: absolute;
   filter:progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.BasicImage(rotation=3);
}

and if you notice the last line

filter:progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.BasicImage(rotation=3);

here we used the filter property in ie and use the DXImageTransform filter to do such effect :)
see you in another tip
