• Testing + production server and syncing MySQL data

  - by Matthew

  I have a web application running on LAMP with a testing server and a production server. Is there a standard practice for keeping the data on the testing server in sync with the production server? The data on the testing server gets out of date pretty quick and I feel like there must be an easier way than just dumping the production server and copying it onto the testing server every so often. It's not important that the data is in total sync, just that the testing server represents the production enviornment as accurately as possible.

• Where should I keep my log files?

  - by ripper234

  We keep most of our logs in a dedicated database table. We have written custom appenders for log4j and log4net, have a fixed log schema with lots of handy columns, and are quite happy with it. Is that the "best practice" (for sites smaller in scale than Facebook, where a simple DB table just won't scale)?

• Letting users try your web app before sign-up: sessions or temp db?

  - by Mat

  I've seen a few instances now where web applications are letting try them out without you having to sign-up (though to save you need to of course). example: try at http://minutedock.com/ I'm wondering about doing this for my own web app and the fundamental question is whether to store their info into sessions or into a temp user table? The temp user table would allow logging and potentially be less of a hit on the server, correct? Is there a best practice here?

• How to organize Drupal templates?

  - by picardo

  I created a few custom templates while modifying a theme (Acquia Prosper), and my usual practice is to put all my templates in this fashion: theme-name/templates/page/page-front.tpl.php But it didn't quite work this time. So I'm wondering why. I looked through the templates.php for a clue, but there is nothing there. My base theme where I used this organization was genesis, and in that theme it seems to work, but not in Acquia Prosper. Can anyone shed some light on this?

• With MVVM, does each UI window have its own ViewModel?

  - by j0rd4n

  When I'm designing multiple views under the MVVM pattern, does each view get its own ViewModel or do they all share the same one? I understand that this is ultimately a flexible decision, but what is the best practice? My gut tells me to have a ViewModel for each view (i.e. each separate UI window). All of the blog examples of MVVM show a single view but not much beyond that.

• Retrieve remote XML data with PHP

  - by rrrfusco

  I'm currently reading a regularly updated XML file with PHP (simpleXML). I'd like to reduce calls to the remote server by reading a cache file on my web server, then after some time, retrieving a new copy of the remote file. Is this an accepted practice for reading remote XML files, then parsing? Can anyone offer some suggestions on how to go about this in PHP, or perhaps there are some PEAR classes that deal with this?

• Ternary operator in if-statement?

  - by Pindatjuh

  I've written the following if-statement in Java: if(methodName.equals("set" + this.name) || isBoolean() ? methodName.equals("is" + this.name) : methodName.equals("get" + this.name)) { ... } Is this a good practice to write such expressions in if, to separate state from condition? And can this expression be simplified?

• What is the appropriate way to set a VB StringBuilder to an empty string?

  - by Wayne Werner

  I'm using VB's StringBuilder, and I was curious what is considered "best practice" for emptying the builder/setting it to a new string. Would it be something like this: Dim str As New System.Text.StringBuilder() str.Append("Some string to remove") str = new System.Text.StringBuilder() str.Append("Ahh, fresh new text!") or is there a "Better" way? Thanks

• How to Add "Write a Review" / "Rate Us" Feature to My App?

  - by Ohad Regev

  I wish to add some sort of a "Write a Review" or "Rate Us" feature to my app so my customers can easily rate and review my app. Best practice I can think of is to have some sort of pop-up or open a UIWebView within my app so the user is not kicked off of my app while opening the App Store application as done in: [[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"itms://itunes.com/apps/myAppName"]]; Does anyone knows of a way to do that?

• what do I tweak to manipulate the gaps between bullets/numbers and list items?

  - by Andrew Heath

  Simple question - what part of my CSS do I tweak to adjust the gap between a bullet/number and the first text character in an HTML list? Bonus question - I've seen it mentioned here that controlling table spacing by adjust padding on table tr td {} is bad practice, but I haven't seen someone explain how you're really supposed to do it...?

• Bash: Is it ok to use same input file as output of a piped command?

  - by Amro

  Consider something like: cat file | command > file Is this good practice? Could this overwrite the input file as the same time as we are reading it, or is it always read first in memory then piped to second command? Obviously I can use temp files as intermediary step, but I'm just wondering.. t=$(mktemp) cat file | command > ${t} && mv ${t} file

• [Design Question] When to open a link on a new window?

  - by Ian

  Hi All, When designing a web application/web site, is there an accepted practice on when to open a link on a new window? Currently, if the site being linked to is outside the domain (say Google.com), I am always launching it on a new window. If the page being linked is within the same domain, I open it on the current active window. I've read somewhere the opening links on a new window explicitly is being frowned upon. Thanks!

• Do most shared hosts handle gzipped files?

  - by Matrym

  I get them theoretically, but I'm grappling with gzipping files in practice. How should I go about gzip compressing my files, and what needs to be done in order to use them on a shared host? Would the following work? RewriteEngine On RewriteBase / RewriteCond %{HTTP:Accept-Encoding} .*gzip.* RewriteRule ^/(.*)\.js$ /$1.js.gz [L] RewriteRule ^/(.*)\.css$ /$1.css.gz [L] AddEncoding x-gzip text.gz
