(JavaScript) Return Age from Date of Birth

Wed, 11 Jul 2012 07:47:51 GMT

Calculates the amount of time since the date specified with yr, mon, and day. The parameter "countunit" can be "years", "months", or "days" and is the duration between the specified day and today in the selected denomination. The "decimals" parameter allows you to set a decimal place to round to for days and months return values. Rounding is also meant for days and months and can be "roundup" or "rounddown" based solely on the properties of Math.ceil and math.floor respectively. Sample - displayage(1997, 11, 24, "years", 0, "rounddown")

(PHP) Password Hash and Validation

Wed, 04 Jan 2012 06:18:53 GMT

Calling generateHash() with a single argument (the plain text password) will cause a random string to be generated and used for the salt. The resulting string consists of the salt followed by the SHA-1 hash - this is to be stored away in your database. When you're checking a user's login, the situation is slightly different in that you already know the salt you'd like to use. The string stored in your database can be passed to generateHash() as the second argument when generating the hash of a user-supplied password for comparison.

Short and sweet, add the following two lines where you want to trigger a javascript function. Just change the javascript denoted in the code by "javascriptFunction()" with whatever you want to call. Also jsut in case make sure you have the allowScriptAccess parameter set to "always".

(JavaScript) Resize iframe height based on it's content

Wed, 11 Aug 2010 06:35:40 GMT

Sometimes iframes are unavoidable, and in those cases you usually don't want it to be apparent there is one. This will find the height of the iframed contents and resize the iframe accordingly, making it appear to be part of the page. Almost positive there's a better way to do this but this worked the most consistently across browsers so I'm saving it here. Suggestions welcome, especially on methods to do the same in jQuery.
