Email Cloaker

Email Cloaker for Web - Simple utility generates code that cloaks e-mail addresses in HTML and prevents them from being harvested by spam spiders.

At present some programs collecting email addresses can already decrypt addresses encrypted with almost any method and add them to their database. Neither javascript cloak, nor html cloak can help. To protect against such email harvesters, you should not specify your email address on web pages in any form (neither plain nor encrypted) and Email Cloaker for Web 1.2 allows you to protect your addresses in such a way.

Email Cloaker simply registers a spam-protected Contact Form for your email address on the server of the free service XInbox.com and then just creates a link to this form that you can specify both on your HTML pages and (which is quite important) on forums, chats, etc.

Textpattern CMS website
Create attractive websites with easy to update content

Textpattern is an elegant content management system that is free, open source software. Web designers, developers, publishers and bloggers love its flexibility and extensibility. It has a powerful, sophisticated engine that can be infinitely tuned to suit whatever type of web site you can imagine.

Who is it for?

With its built-in simplicity, a blogger can start publishing in minutes. Designers and developers appreciate the ability to control all aspects of XHTML and CSS from the Admin interface, and with hundreds of plugins available, the power of Textpattern is easily extended.

How does it work?

Textpattern uses built-in tags to determine how dynamic content should be retrieved and displayed. You have complete control over the content and presentation, making the CMS both simple and elegant to use.

The admin interface is minimalist, efficient and clearly labelled. Designers can quickly produce well-structured, standards-compliant websites while authors can get on with publishing and editing content. Textile, which uses just a few markers to nudge plain text into fully-formatted web content, is built-in.

Full featured software and a friendly community

The core features are greatly extended through the use of plugins. Need a special function? Find the plugin, copy and paste it into the plugin field and activate. Simple as that!

There’s no need to know any PHP or jQuery coding to use TXP, though many web developers create plugins for all kinds of purposes. The friendly community forum will most likely make you a plugin if it hasn’t already been made. Unlike some other forums, the Textpattern developers themselves answer questions, listen to suggestions and write plugins.

Requires a web server with:
PHP 4.3+
MySQL 3.23+
The PHP mysql extensions
The PHP XML extension (included by default in PHP)

CurvyCorners
Add rounded corners to a webpage

What is CurvyCorners?

A free JavaScript library for creating gorgeous rounded corners for HTML block elements i.e. DIVs. Supports anti-aliasing, borders and background images.

Why use CurvyCorners?

CurvyCorners is designed to fill a gap in modern browser support for rounded corners on block elements while we wait for CSS3 to be finalised and supported by all browsers.

Currently Firefox, Safari and Chrome have limited support for the proposed CSS3 border-radius selector.

Will CurvyCorners use native border-radius if available?

Yes! CurvyCorners only does its magic on browsers that don't have CSS3 border-radius support, namely IE and Opera.
