We can create a search page for a dynamic website using Database queries and looping over resultant record sets. But what can we do if the website main contains static html files than dynamically populated content. In this case , we usually put Google search box inside website (Google custom search)

Sphider is a php based spider to crawl inside your own website and index all the pages as a Search Engine does. It makes search over static html pages simple. The script crawls through all links from basic home page and create an index file in your own local database.

Here is the website: http://www.sphider.eu/

It may be an unwanted post, but I recently got this information while sufing through.. It is nothing but a javascript file from Yahoo. It is duty is to convery every mp3 link inside an html page into mp3 player and it also creates a playlist according the the mp3 links available.

What you have to do, is just add this js file below your html page which contains some mp3 href

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://mediaplayer.yahoo.com/js"></script>

You can see the demo here,if your browser supports flash

Take view source to see how does it work

Thanks

If you are a social media website developer , sometimes you might search for grabbing contacts from a particular email account if the password is given. I also did the same.  In most of the cases it did not work properly. But recently i got a contact grabber from phpclasses.org which works perfectly on Gmail, Hotmail, Rediff, Yahoo, Orkut, MySpace, Indiatimes, Linkedin , AOL and lycos

screen shot

But the zip file i got is not well arranged, so it shows some errors . I arranged it in proper way and uploaded here:

Using this php code , you can export the email contacts as csv file.

I personally like gmail than any other webmail service in this world. I was a regular yahoo mail user two years before, and i used yahoo messenger also. I am not blaming yahoo mail service, i don’t know the reason for this switching exactly, but i like gmail. Might be because of its simple chat, simple Ajax implementation, very simple look, etc . But the thing i want to disclose is not a mere comparison of gmail and yahoo, that is not my concern here.

Some additional features i expected while using gmail are HTML signature, customizing the view, labellings, theme , removal of ads , i am not revealing the climax of the movie here but i got a mozilla plugin which does all the lagging features of gmail what i expected, and its name is Better Gmail (They could have put better name) .

You can download that plugin from here : Better Gmail

Screen shot:

Download the plugin and install and refresh gmail page after making any changes in the option. Put a better html signature with images , links etc like yahoo, customize your gmail as you wish.

(Tips: For 100% working of this plugin, you need to switch into older gmail version)
