Assuming a lot of people are just trying to translate dynamically a fan page tab on Facebook since the old tag restricted to (<fb:restricted-to>) is deprecated, I will just list step by step what you have to do. If you need more details, don’t hesitate to ask in the comments below. Everything is done here with PHP.

Examples

Just so you know what we are trying to do there, here is a list of Facebook pages using this functionnality:

• Coca-Cola
• Accor Hotels

Actually Coca-Cola seems to use another method than the one described here because changing the browser language or the Facebook language does not affect the fan page. I think they use IP geolocalisation.

Time for me to write an article after the awesome post from luc about php.net hack rumors.
I’ll give you here some tips i used a loooong time ago. I used it to gather a maximum of fresh new content and backlinks. Let’s brain a little bit here.

It’s more a psychological trap for SEO admin checking stats x20 /day :)

This is the third article about my journey building a HTPC server. If you didn’t follow the whole serie, they are available here: basic & hardware considerations.

I finally received all the hardware required to build my server. I only bought the base: a motherboard which includes CPU plus graphic card (AT5IONT-I), memory (1x1GB + 1x2GB), a case (Lian-Li PC-V354R), and a Blu-Ray reader. I re-used a Antec EarthWatt 500W power supply unit and a old 500G hard drive I had in some server laying at my place.

The news, coming initially from VUPEN from what I can see, is spreading that PHP.NET has been hacked. PHP sources released on the website seems to have been backdoored, or at least modified.

It’s not to risky to say that some of you have surely been annoyed by someone through emails exchanges.

A concrete example is the one my brother has experienced. Last year he wanted to go to London for a few days so he spoke by emails with someone who lives there and who promised him some hosting solutions in exchange of only one thing: make a transfer through Western Union to himself (from my brother to my brother), just in order to verify if he has a credited account. At this point my brother had never heard about Western Union Scam, but that did not last long.

I have no idea how (I’m not aware of Western Union processes) but this guy managed to steal the money transfered from my brother. Then you surely have already guessed, he did not answer anymore, neither from his email neither on the web forum where my brother found him (craigslist.com).

Actually he had two solutions:

• ignorance (just can pray to hope the bank will restore the stolen money),
• strike back by finding his real identity.

The hack that I’m going to describe you has permit to my brother finding the real identity of the scammer only with his email and to engage legal pursuits against him. At the moment, they are still in tribunal procedures.

This is the second part of my brainstorming which should lead to building a HTPC server. If you missed the first part, its available right here.

After I decided what kind of HTPC I was looking for, I started crawling the Internet trying to figure out what would be the best hardware. This post will try to expose and explain the decisions I made. As of today, I’m waiting for all those parts to be delivered.

Hi,

You may have heard about a recent security hole in facebook.com (you know, the #2 website from Alexa ranks). French president Nicolas Sarkozy and Facebook’s CEO Mark Zuckerberg pages were recently hijacked.

How it works:  hackers have used a cross site scripting vulnerability (XSS) for stealing cookie.
