Processing HTML Files as PHP Files
Mar 9, 2007 Uncategorized
This is one of the most useful configurations that you need when you try to configure php on a apache web server.
Parsing HTML files as PHP Files
There are a lot of advantages in rendering PHP code as HTML files instad of a ".php " file.
- HTML extensions are user friendly
- say if you are migrating a site from some other technology to php, this can be very helpful.
The Process of adding .html extension to php scripts is relatively easy. Jus add the following line to your .htaccess or httpd.conf file
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .html
and thats all its done. This works fine with the my version of apache (HTTP Server 2.0.59).

Welcome to Web Analytics
Mar 8, 2007 Uncategorized
“Welcome to the world of Web Trends”, this is wat aditya told me when he introduced me to a weird web based charting and graphing tool (thats how webtrends looked like to me when i had m first look at it), For a moment i thought like it is just another customized web based analytics and reporting engine, which generates reports outta databases… But as usual i was wrong. 
That was when i first began to have a look at the dirty big web analytics engine.
Web log Analytics (or simply WebTrends) is a software technology that allows users to examine webserver log files to understand user-activity, behavior patterns, requirements and client side specs of people who visit a website. The information thats gathered can very much help to increase the ROI of any organization, Web analytics mainly help in understanding user behaviors on a website, understanding their requirements, hurdles in reaching the information you need, conveying the correct information to the correct customer., etc.
In a current day scenario, where web based marketing plays a very critical role in business activity of every organization, web analytics tools like webtrends provide you total control and information you need on the web-activities you get involved in.
Say if you handle marketing for a organization. you will invest in paid searches in various search engines, so in order to analyze data , you will have to access each search engine get data integrate em accumulate all statistics , and then analyze the data. On the other hand if you have a third party analytics engine, you can do all the analysis at you end and be able to access all your campaigns and marketing activities in a single place.
Its not Just about marketing , you generally get data about ever kinda stuff on web , whether it is time zone, or city or the browser version or even the search query they used to reach your website…
I started feeling sleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeepy now. will blog later on this… more tech(???) stuff to continue….
