Apache xampp virtual hosts configuration on mac

After installing xampp on mac you need to change permission for /xamppfiles/etc/httpd.conf file. There is simple program for that, called BatChmod.

Next you need to enable it for user thsty you want:

Find:
User nobody
Group nogroup
Change it to:
User YOURUSERNAME
Group admin


If you projects are in another location you will need to change DocumentRoot in httpd.conf to you path, and also need to change line
<Directory "/Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/htdocs">
to you path, and "Deny from all" to "Allow from all" to this directory


After that uncomment
Include /Applications/XAMPP/etc/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf

Here is where you put your virtual hosts. 

It should look like :

NameVirtualHost 127.0.0.1

<VirtualHost 127.0.0.1>
  ServerName yourdomain.dev
  DocumentRoot "/Users/username/projects/your_project"
  DirectoryIndex index.php
  <Directory "/Users/username/projects/your_project">
    Options +Indexes FollowSymLinks +ExecCGI
    AllowOverride AuthConfig FileInfo
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
  </Directory>
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost 127.0.0.1>
  ServerName localhost
  DocumentRoot "/Users/username/projects/"
  DirectoryIndex index.php
  <Directory "/Users/username/projects/">
    Options +Indexes FollowSymLinks +ExecCGI
    AllowOverride AuthConfig FileInfo
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
  </Directory>
</VirtualHost> 
Last thing, add yourdomain to hosts

Open the Terminal and type:
sudo pico /etc/hosts

Now enter your admin password. You'll get a little text editor in the console. Go to the last line and add this line:
127.0.0.1 yourdomain.dev with the correct name for every virtual host you would like to set up. When you're done, type control-o, then enter and then control-x in order to save and close.

simple ajax call

This is part for the view script:

function addAdditional(lnk) {
        jQuery.ajax({
                        type: "POST",
                        url: "<?php echo $this->url(array('controller' => 'content', 'action' => 'vote'), 'default', true); ?>",
                        data: jQuery('#star-form').serialize()+'&content_id=' + <?php echo $this->content_id ?>,
                        success: function(res)
                        {
                            r = jQuery.parseJSON(res);
                            if(r.status == 'success')
                            {
                                if(r.saved == 'success') {
                                    $("#vote-button").next().html('Uspesno ste glasali!');
                                } else {
                                    $("#vote-button").next().html('Niste glasali. Pokusajte ponovo!');
                                }

                            }
                            else
                            {
                                $("#vote-button").next().html('Niste glasali. Pokusajte ponovo!');
                            }
                        }
                    });
        return false;
    }

Here is the controller action

public function voteAction() {
        $result = array(
            "status" => "",
            "saved" => "",
        );

        if ($ok) {
            //do code
            $result = array(
                "status" => "success",
                "saved" => "success",
            );
        } else {
            $result = array(
                "status" => "success",
                "saved" => "error",
            );
        }

        die(json_encode($result));
    }

Using selenium server with netbeans

Fisst of all you need to have php unit installed. PHPUnit should be installed using the PEAR INSTALLER. I didnt have go-pear.bat in my wamp 2.1, so i copied it from xamp server and ran "php -d phar.require_hash=0 PEAR/go-pear.phar" command, then you nedeed to upgrade pear using "pear install PEAR-1.9.3" command. Now install php Unit http://www.phpunit.de/manual/current/en/installation.html.

Now you can continue with http://netbeans.org/kb/docs/php/phpunit.html#installing-phpunit

Zend send variable to a form

We create variable that we need in controller:

$this->view->random = date('YmdHis').rand(10000, 9999).rand(10000, 9999);

Then we pass it to a form call in controller:

$this->view->form = new Application_Form_ContentGame(array('random'=>$this->view->random));

And in a form, we get it with:

$random = $this->getAttrib('random');

Jquery add another form field

First we need div to clone with remove link:

<div id="floorForClone" style="display: none;">
<div id="floor-plan">
    <input type="hidden" name="floor_plan_id[]" value="{$id}" />
    <div id="floor-plan-info" class="fleft" style="width: 140px;">
        <div class="fleft mt5 w100p ">
            <label for="floor_plan_name">Name</label>
            <div class="fleft pfid373">
                <input id="floor_plan_name" name="floor_plan_name[]" value='{$floor_plan.floor_plan_name}' class="category-profile-form-textbox text" type="text" />
            </div>
        </div>
    </div>
    <div id="floor-plan-info" class="fleft" style="width: 110px;">
        <div class="fleft mt5 w100p ">
            <label for="floor_bedrooms">Bedrooms</label>

            <div class="fleft pfid374">
                <select name="floor_bedrooms[]">
                    <option label="1" value="179">Select</option>
                    <option label="1" value="273">1</option>
                    <option label="2" value="274">2</option>
                </select>

            </div>
        </div>
    </div>
    <a onclick="removeAdditionalFloor(jQuery(this)); return false;" href="" class="add">Remove</a>
</div>

Then there are script functions to add remove fields:

function addAdditionalFloor(lnk) {
        lnk.before('<div id="floor-plan">' + jQuery('#floorForClone').html() + '</div>');
        return false;
    }
    function removeAdditionalFloor(lnk) {
        lnk.closest("#floor-plan").remove();;
        return false;
    }

And last add the add another link where do we need it:

<a onclick="addAdditionalFloor(jQuery(this)); return false;" href="" class="add">Add floor plan</a>
