jQuery Mix Photo Gallery

Recently I coded an interesting photo gallery using jQuery. I’ve named it “jQuery Mix Photo Gallery”. I’ve included the screen-shots here.

You may have a look at the live demo here. The photo gallery is free to download. Here is the download link. You may modify it according to your need and use it in your commercial projects. Please drop a comment if you like it and suggest me how can I make it much better.

Google Chrome for Mac and Linux operating system now on air

Google has released a version of its popular web browser Google Chrome on December 8, 2009 for Macintosh computers. Google’s target is to challenge Safari Web browser offered by Apple to its users. Google also released a beta version of Chrome for computers running on open-source Linux operating systems on the same day.

Google claimed its extra effort to build a fast and polished browser for Mac. The Macintosh version of Chrome is still in ‘beta’ version and yet to unveil in full swing. While using the beta version, Macintosh users do not yet have customization features such as allowing extension programs or bookmark management.
Google has also planned that Linux and Windows compatible versions of Chrome could be customized with features such as mini “extension” programs. Already the beta version of Google Chrome for windows has a lot of extensions available to download from Google Chrome Extensions (beta).

Google Chrome for Mac runs on Mac OS X and the Linux version of Chrome supports Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora & openSUSE Linux.

Get Google and Alexa rank of a domain using PHP

There are already a lot of ways to find gpr/alexa rank of a domain using php. But not all of them work on 64bit servers. Here is the code that I always use for finding the google page rank and alexa rank of a website.

Get Google Page rank

function google_page_rank($url) { // URL or domain name
    if (strlen(trim($url))>0) {
        $_url = eregi("http://",$url)? $url:"http://".$url;
        $pagerank = trim(GooglePageRank($_url));
        if (empty($pagerank)) $pagerank = 0;
        return (int)($pagerank);
    }
    return 0;
}

function GooglePageRank($url) {
    $fp = fsockopen("toolbarqueries.google.com", 80, $errno, $errstr, 30);
    if (!$fp) {
        echo "$errstr ($errno)<br />\n";
        } else {
        $out = "GET /search?client=navclient-auto&ch=".CheckHash(HashURL($url))."&features=Rank&q=info:".$url."&num=100&filter=0 HTTP/1.1\r\n";
        $out .= "Host: toolbarqueries.google.com\r\n";
        $out .= "User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; GoogleToolbar 2.0.114-big; Windows XP 5.1)\r\n";
        $out .= "Connection: Close\r\n\r\n";
        fwrite($fp, $out);

        while (!feof($fp)) {
            $data = fgets($fp, 128);
            $pos = strpos($data, "Rank_");
        if($pos === false){} else{
                $pagerank = substr($data, $pos + 9);
            }
        }
        fclose($fp);
        return $pagerank;
    }
}

function StrToNum($Str, $Check, $Magic) {
    $Int32Unit = 4294967296; // 2^32
    $length = strlen($Str);
    for ($i = 0; $i < $length; $i++) {
        $Check *= $Magic;
        if ($Check >= $Int32Unit) {
            $Check = ($Check - $Int32Unit * (int) ($Check / $Int32Unit));
            $Check = ($Check < -2147483648)? ($Check + $Int32Unit) : $Check;
        }
        $Check += ord($Str{$i});
    }
    return $Check;
}

function HashURL($String) {
    $Check1 = StrToNum($String, 0x1505, 0x21);
    $Check2 = StrToNum($String, 0, 0x1003F);
    $Check1 >>= 2;
    $Check1 = (($Check1 >> 4) & 0x3FFFFC0 ) | ($Check1 & 0x3F);
    $Check1 = (($Check1 >> 4) & 0x3FFC00 ) | ($Check1 & 0x3FF);
    $Check1 = (($Check1 >> 4) & 0x3C000 ) | ($Check1 & 0x3FFF);
    $T1 = (((($Check1 & 0x3C0) < < 4) | ($Check1 & 0x3C)) << 2 ) | ($Check2 & 0xF0F );
    $T2 = (((($Check1 & 0xFFFFC000) << 4) | ($Check1 & 0x3C00)) << 0xA) | ($Check2 & 0xF0F0000 );
    return ($T1 | $T2);
}

function CheckHash($Hashnum) {
    $CheckByte = 0;
    $Flag = 0;
    $HashStr = sprintf('%u', $Hashnum) ;
    $length = strlen($HashStr);
    for ($i = $length - 1; $i >= 0; $i --) {
        $Re = $HashStr{$i};
        if (1 === ($Flag % 2)) {
            $Re += $Re;
            $Re = (int)($Re / 10) + ($Re % 10);
        }
        $CheckByte += $Re;
        $Flag ++;
    }
    $CheckByte %= 10;
    if (0!== $CheckByte) {
        $CheckByte = 10 - $CheckByte;
        if (1 === ($Flag % 2) ) {
            if (1 === ($CheckByte % 2)) {
                $CheckByte += 9;
            }
            $CheckByte >>= 1;
        }
    }
    return '7'.$CheckByte.$HashStr;
}

Find Alexa Rank

function alexaRank($domain){
    $remote_url = 'http://data.alexa.com/data?cli=10&dat=snbamz&url='.trim($domain);
    $search_for = '<POPULARITY URL';
    if ($handle = @fopen($remote_url, "r")) {
        while (!feof($handle)) {
            $part .= fread($handle, 100);
            $pos = strpos($part, $search_for);
            if ($pos === false)
            continue;
            else
            break;
        }
        $part .= fread($handle, 100);
        fclose($handle);
    }
    $str = explode($search_for, $part);
    $str = array_shift(explode('"/>', $str[1]));
    $str = explode('TEXT="', $str);

    return $str[1];
}
