This post will describe the simplest ever solution to remove a shortcut in Windows Mobile 6.1 Menu. This worked on my HTC Tytn, and it should work on any Windows-Enabled phone. If, for any reason, you are unable to delete your shortcut using Settings->Menus, all you need to do is to delete your shortcut using file system. In order to delete it, you need to navigate to Phone Memory\Windows\Start Menu and delete all the unnecessary shortcuts. Here is a complete guide for shortcuts and I hope you will find it helpful.
Sometimes we need to kill a bunch of processes. For example, we have run a plenty of PHP scripts from command line, and have noticed there are errors in them. Let’s say the wrong script is called php_script.php. Then in order to terminate all processes associated with script name, you need to issue the following command:
kill `ps aux | grep php_script.php | grep -v grep | awk '{print $2}'`
First of all, let me explain, what the sticky bit is. When set, it tells the operating system to retain the text segment of the application in swap space after the process exited.

You can meet this error while trying to make PHP on a fresh server. For example, you have this configure line:

and the error you receive is:

?>
This post is related to Liberty Reserve API. If you’re using it and have suddenly found that you cannot use in anymore, it is possible that you can face an authentication error. Even if your password, API name and secret word were not changed, you can get such a responce: 200Authentication error.
Here is a short regexp that is used to validate whether a user has entered correct URL address. Might be useful in any scripts dealing with user data.
I will show it as PHP code:
preg_match(‘/^(http:\/\/|https:\/\/)([^\.\/]+\.)*([a-zA-Z0-9])([a-zA-Z0-9-]*)\.([a-zA-Z]{2,4})(\/.*)?$/i’, $_POST['url']);

If you need to communicate with your customers to solve their problems, you definitely need a help desk. A place, where all most popular questions are answered and users have the ability to ask if anything remains unclear.
