Yahoo! Store with PHP and MySQL

December 12th, 2007

Yes, it’s true you can have a Yahoo! store with PHP and MySQL. That means you can offer all finds of scripts, programs, and functions on your store. I am going to make this available to the public soon. Currently I wanted to get this post out because I made this break though and I wanted to ensure that it is copyrighted (it’s copyrighted by the fact that I am mentioning it here and have a link to the source code).

Unfortunately, you will not be able to download the source code right now but the code is post and therefore does fall under the copyright laws.

Again look forward to the release of this script. Currently parts are in Alpha and others in Beta.

This is a great tutorial on creating an HTML editor. The editor works in both IE and Firefox. Also it very easy to use, using simple JavaScript functions and doesn’t use a bunch of files to work.

The website source on this is Modzilla, so it’s creditable.

Also here is where you can see a list of JavaScript commands for this type of editor:

Buy/Selling Links

http://www.text-link-ads.com

Seams like a good website to buy links from, they can make you a custom link proposal for free.

The only down fall is that you can’t see that their website address it, to find this out you can do 2 things look at the image it has for the website and pick off some text and search for it in google, or add it to your cart and then look at cart details and you it gives you their website address.

They also offer a way to sell links and link in blog articles. It does not look like you make much money off of it though.
