Overflow CSS – About and How to use it in various conditions
Today I will tell you about CSS again. This is will property called ‘overflow’. This property already in CSS since second version (CSS2). All popular browsers like Firefox, IE, Safari, Opera etc supporting this property. I will tell about IE browsers in details a little after.

Each value defines two aspects of the generated element: whether to display the contents outside of the block itself and are we will have scrolling mechanism.

sha1, md5 and other cryptography
Today we will talk about cryptography. As we know, cryptography – the set of methods to ensure confidentiality and authenticity of information. Cryptography is even science. Encryption can be reversible (when we can get the source text) and irreversible (when we can can`t get the source text). Today we will talk about using an irreversible encryption methods (like md5, sha, haval, ripemd and others) in web development.
Irreversible encryption is most often used to encrypt passwords. All in order not to store passwords as open text. Thus even if your database is hacked – you can be sure that the attacker does not receive a single password. How are we going to check – whether the user enters a password – simply, we will encrypt the entered data too. Of corse, passwords are not the only where encryption is used. We also can encrypt text, files, and after transferring – check for hash sum of sent data. This is just examples of using. Read more

jQuery validator – checking forms
Today I will tell you how to build professional web forms with validation. I will use jQuery Validator Plugin for our tutorial.
You can ask me – where I can use it? – Quite anywhere: login or join forms for your website, forms of adding content, different guest books or blocks for comments. Really many ways for using it. I already saw several projects where validation was at server side. And submit of form just reload whole page where we seens – are we made any errors or not. Sometimes webmasters using ajax to send data invisible to server for validation. But in most of cases, this is much faster just to check all entered information at user side (using javascript/jQuery). Just check these several demos – and I will explain how to use it.
