Image Protection with jQuery

Once an image is publicly available on the internet, there are many ways to make a local copy of it. There are also a number of ways that try to prevent such unauthorized downloads. Preventing right click / save of the image is most likely the easiest way to protect the casual drive-by image theft. How to incorporate it within a Drupal theme? 5 lines of code. Within the theme directory, create (if it doesn't exist) or edit script.js. This file will be loaded automatically with the rest of the Drupal jQuery. $(document).ready(function(){ $('img').bind("contextmenu",function(){ return false; })

CKEditor and GeSHi filter

Update: This approach does not involve the WYSIWYG module. It relies on the installation of CKEditor (module and editor) without a middleman management module. If you desire finer control of toolbar display by roles or HTML functionality permissions, take a closer look at the Better Formats module. It is easier to focus on content when working with a WYSIWYG editor. I can always switch to view the source code if I need to do more complex editing. As I continue to document my Drupal experiences, I wanted to use a syntax highlighter when sharing code samples. First, I looked at the Syntax

Daily emails from chkrootkit using postfix / sendmail command

You have installed chkrootkit and it's now running with daily cron, but unless you are logging in daily to check the logs, you won't know of any potential problems. Here's a simple way to have the daily report emailed to you with only postfix installed, using the sendmail command. Edit /etc/chkrootkit.conf and add the following REPORT_EMAIL="[email protected]" Edit /etc/cron.daily/chkrootkit and towards the bottom of the file, replace $CHKROOTKIT $RUN_DAILY_OPTS with $CHKROOTKIT > $LOG_DIR/chkrootkit.log #Run chkrootkit and save the logfile ( echo "Subject: [chkrootkit] $(hostname -f) - Daily

Sort Multiple Formats of Date Fields in Views

Scenario: two or more content types. First content type uses a CCK Date field with date, hours, minutes, while the other content type(s) only need a date field without the hours and minutes. Because a CCK Date field sets the granularity globally, most users set up two different fields with two different granularity settings. This works well, until there is a need to display all of the content sorted by date - Views can't sort and/or merge two independent fields and then do a global sort. The answer is surprisingly simple. In the appropriate content type, define only one CCK Date field and set
