FYI, using the Mod_Rewrite Variables Cheatsheet makes this example, and all advanced .htaccess code easier to understand. This demo lets you set a cookie with 1 of 3 values, then you just request the pdf file with a normal link click and get 1 of 3 different responses. This is accomplished with a nice bit of .htaccess code.

As I explain the htaccess code that achieves this, keep in mind this is merely one simple application for this code. It's much more advanced than your basic htaccess trick, notice how this htaccess acts like a php script, very unusual.. I really wanted to share this trick after I created it for one of my clients because this is the tip of the iceberg. Another use would be to display an alternate style sheet depending on a users theme preference. The coolest thing is that it uses multiple advanced .htaccess ideas. This code uses mod_headers to set the Content-Disposition header for forcing a download and uses mod_rewrite to: Send different Content-Type headers, Check the value of a cookie, Set environment variables for use later by mod_headers header directive

What's Going On

There are 3 different ways for a server to send a pdf file in response to a request for one. This causes 3 different ways to open/view the pdf file in the clients browser.

1. The browser display's a "Save File As" dialog, allowing you to save the file or open.
2. The browser opens the pdf file "Inline", opening the pdf file in the browser like a web page.
3. The browser "Downloads" the pdf file automatically as an "Attachment" and then causes an external pdf reader program like adobe reader to open the file.

Some people prefer to have the option of saving the file to view later, some prefer opening it with an external program, and some just like the pdf file to load right in the browser... The point is that by using .htaccess, we can let them choose any of the 3 methods and save their preference for all further pdf files requested from our site by that user.

How It Works

When you click on one of the 3 demo buttons above, "Inline", "Save As", or "Download", a cookie named askapache_pdf is saved in your browser using the javascript below, with the value being set to which button you clicked. Then when you request the pdf file the .htaccess code below uses mod_rewrite to read the value of the askapache_pdf cookie, and depending on which was your preference it will send alternate HTTP Headers that control how your browser handles the file.

Unique HTTP Headers Returned

When it comes down to it, the following information is the 3 modes. Notice each one is different, because these headers are the only thing controlling how your browser handles the file.

Save As Mode (askapache_pdf=s)

Content-Disposition: attachment
Content-Type: application/pdf

Inline Mode (askapache_pdf=i)

Content-Type: application/pdf

Download Mode (askapache_pdf=a)

Content-Type: application/octet-stream

Htaccess Demo File

For the demo I created the folder /storage/pdf/ and this is the .htaccess file at /storage/pdf/.htaccess

The default Content-Type for .pdf files. This will make .pdf files default Content-Type header have the value 'application/pdf' - but the default can be overridden by using RewriteRule with the [T='different/type']

AddType application/pdf .pdf

Turn on the rewrite engine if its already on you dont need this

RewriteEngine On

Skip RewriteRules if not .pdf request, like autoindexing. The next [2] RewriteRule directives are specific for .pdf files so if the filename requested does not end in .pdf then the [S=2] instructs the next 2 RewriteRule directives to be completely skipped.

RewriteRule !.*\.pdf$ - [S=2]

The first RewriteCond checks to see if the askapache_pdf cookie is NOT set. The second RewriteCond checks to see if the askapche_pdf cookie has the value of s, which is the value corresponding to someone clicking the "Save As" button.

The [NC,OR] flag means that if the cookie askapache_pdf does not exist, OR (next cond) if the askapache_pdf cookie does exist and is set to 's' then process the RewriteRule. If neither cond is true the rewriterule is skipped.

If one of the RewriteCond is true, then the RewriteRule is processed. The RewriteRule applies to any/all requests (.*) but doesn't rewrite anything (-) This RewriteRule sets an Apache environment variable ASKAPACHE_PDFS to have the value of 1 if either rewritecond is true. The variable can be checked by any directives following the rewriterule in the whole htaccess file. The ASKAPACHE_PDFS ends in S because if this variable exists then it means the users preference is 'Save As'

Notice that if the user requested the pdf file without selecting a preference i.e. no cookie exists, then the ASKAPACHE_PDFS variable is still set. This just lets us pick the default preference for them, in this example the default is 'Save As'

RewriteCond %{HTTP_COOKIE} !^.*askapache_pdf.*$ [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_COOKIE} ^.*askapache_pdf=s.*$ [NC]
RewriteRule .* - [E=ASKAPACHE_PDFS:1]

The RewriteCond checks the askapache_pdf cookie for the value 'a' which 'a' represents 'Download'

If the cookies value is 'a' then the RewriteRule overrides the default Content-Type from 'application/pdf' set with AddType earlier, to 'application/octet-stream', which is a special content-type that tells the browser that the file cannot be loaded by the browser 'Inline', but must be saved which will be opened by an external viewer depending on browser configuration and plugins.

RewriteCond %{HTTP_COOKIE} ^.*askapache_pdf=a.*$
RewriteRule .* - [T=application/octet-stream]

This is superfly. If the cookie/users-preference was 'Save As' (s) then the RewriteRule above the last one set the environment variable ASKAPACHE_PDFS to have the value 1. The Header directive here is ONLY processed in that variable ASKAPACHE_PDFS exists. That is what the end 'env=ASKAPACHE_PDFS' does, it is the condition that must be met or the Header directive is skipped. If the ASKAPACHE_PDFS environment variable set by RewriteRule does exist then the header directive adds the header 'Content-Disposition: attachment' to the normal Response Headers. The 'Content-Disposition: attachment' header instructs your browser to present you with the 'Save As' dialog box allowing you to choose whether you want to save or open.

Header set Content-Disposition "attachment" env=ASKAPACHE_PDFS

Javascript used by Demo

The best place for javascript is quirksmode, here is a definitive article on setting, reading, parsing, etc.. COOKIES.

Note, I now prefer using jQuery over my AAJS javascript library. Also, the whole using cookies aspect is just to highlight some advanced htaccess, you can accomplish this much easier without javascript or cookies.

if(!gi('pdfr'))return;
var pdfr=gi('pdfr');
var cval=getCookie('askapache_pdf');
 
if(cval=='i'){pdfr.innerHTML='Currently set to "Inline".';}
else if(cval=='a'){pdfr.innerHTML='Currently set to "Download" mode.';}
else if(cval=='s'){pdfr.innerHTML='Currently set to "Save As" mode.';}
 
addMyEvent(gi('pdfi'),"mousedown",function(){
  setCookie("askapache_pdf", "i", "", "/", "www.askapache.com"); gi('pdfr').innerHTML = 'Changed mode to "Inline".'; return false; });
addMyEvent(gi('pdfa'),"mousedown",function(){
  setCookie("askapache_pdf", "a", "", "/", "www.askapache.com"); gi('pdfr').innerHTML = 'Changed mode to "Download".'; return false; });
addMyEvent(gi('pdfs'),"mousedown",function(){
  setCookie("askapache_pdf", "s", "", "/", "www.askapache.com"); gi('pdfr').innerHTML = 'Changed mode to "Save As".'; return false; });

Alternative Method - No Cookies + PHP

This is what I came up with first for my client, and then while programming the php I noticed.. Hey! I think I can do the same thing using .htaccess, which would save me on cpu/memory/potential security/etc.. but this works great too. Though you will need to hack the code to get it working probably..

Note that the .htaccess rewrite code I used here used FILENAME-i.pdf or FILENAME-s.pdf to pass the preference to the pdf-dl.php script, it also worked for FILENAME.pdf?i=i

pdf-dl.php

<?php
if (
  !isset($_GET['file'])
  || ($f=$_GET['file'])===false
  || ($fp=@fopen($f,"rb"))===false
  || ($fi=pathinfo($f))===false
  || ($fi['fsize']=filesize($f))===false
  || strtolower($fi["extension"])!='pdf'
) die('Failed');
 
ob_start();
header('Accept-Ranges: bytes');
header("Content-Length: {$fi['fsize']}");
header('Content-Type: application/pdf');
if(!isset($_GET['i'])) header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=\"{$fi['basename']}\"");
 
$sent = 0;
while ( !feof($fp) && $sent < $fi['fsize'] && ($buf = fread($fp, 8192)) != '' ){
  echo $buf;
  $sent += strlen($buf);
  flush();  ob_flush();
}
fclose($fp);
exit;
?>

Alternate Method .htaccess

Deny direct request to pdf-dl.php file

RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^.*pdf-dl\.php.*$ [NC]
RewriteRule .* - [F]

Handle PDF files named anything-i.pdf as inline

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ([^/]*)-i\.pdf$  /cgi-bin/pdf-dl.php?i=i&file=%{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/storage/pdf/$1.pdf [L,NC,QSA,S=1]

Handle PDF files without -i.pdf as attachments

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ([^/]*)\.pdf$  /cgi-bin/pdf-dl.php?file=%{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/storage/pdf/$1.pdf [L,NC,QSA]

3 Ways to Serve PDF Files using Htaccess Cookies, Headers, Rewrites originally appeared on AskApache.com

Lightning Strikes Twice!

LOL..

3rd Dimension Broken with Bash!

So 3D... it'll hurt you eyes! lol.. Man I am cracking up here. Ha but seriously those really do look 3D for terminal though.. I am actually really impressed. Sweet. Here is the little function I wrote to output that grey marble.

Just a word to the wise, start learning and going over some of these concepts, especially the code used in functions, I will be back in a followup that details actually using this stu.

This function is one of my favorites because it is so fast and useful. Like when designing a 256color prompt.

aa_256 ()
{
    local o x=`tput op` y=`printf %$((${COLUMNS}-6))s`;
    for i in {0..256};
    do
        o=00$i;
        echo -e ${o:${#o}-3:3} `tputm "setaf $i" "setab $i"`${y// /=}$x;
    done
}

Ya this is actually not very helpful or useful, but there you have it.

tputm ()
{
    local a;
    for a in "$@";
    do
        echo -en "${a}\n";
    done | tput -S
}

Some people call this function the grey bringer of death. Not really.

a256 ()
{
    ( x=`tput op` y=`printf %$((${COLUMNS}-6))slocal `;
    for i in {242..232} 232 232;
    do
        echo -en "`tput setaf $i;tput setab $i`${y}${x}`tput op`";
    done )
}

Helpful Ncurses Programs

ALWAYS check out my functions!

This function will print out the terminal, show it's colors, etc.. I have some really nice ones in this article that I use for tmux, screen, and that sort of thing.

c ()
{
    tput clear;
    pm "$TERM: [colors:`tput colors`/`tput pairs`]";
    RC=`tput op` L1=$(L '=' $(( ${COLUMNS} - 25 )));
    for i in `seq ${1:-0} ${2:-16}`;
    do
        o="  $i";
        echo -e " ${o:${#o}-3:3} `tput setaf $i;tput setab $i`${L1}${RC}";
    done
}

VT100 keypad Diagram

VT100 LINK

Here's a diagram of the VT100 keypad keys with their bindings. The top line is the name of the key (some DEC keyboards have the keys labelled somewhat differently, like GOLD instead of PF1, but this is the most "official" name). The second line is the escape sequence it generates in Application Keypad mode (where "$" means the ESC character). The third line contains two items, first the mapping of the key in terminfo, and then in termcap.

A better adaptation to modern keyboards such as the PC's, which have a dozen function keys and the keypad 2,4,6,8 keys are labeled with arrows keys, is to use the 5-key arrangement to model the arrow keys as suggested in the terminfo guidelines:

Basic Characteristics

This section documents the capabilities that describe the basic and nature of the terminal, and also those that are relevant to the output of graphic characters.

7bit vs. 8bit

These recommendations are optional. IBCS2 allows the leading escape to # be either the 7-bit \E[ or 8-bit \0233 introducer, in accordance with # the ANSI X.364/ISO 6429/ECMA-48 standard.

1.6.1 Describing the Encoding

For example, the cm string for a standard ANSI terminal is written as \E[%i%d;%dH. (\E stands for .) cm by convention always requires two parameters, the vertical and horizontal goal positions, so this string specifies the encoding of two parameters. Here %i increments the two values supplied, and each %d encodes one of the values in decimal. If the cursor position values 20,58 are encoded with this string, the result is \E[21;59H.

First, here are the %-sequences that generate output. Except for %%, each of them encodes one parameter and advances the pointer to the following parameter.

• %% Output a single %. This is the only way to represent a literal % in a terminal command with parameters. %% does not use up a parameter.
• %d As in printf, output the next parameter in decimal.
• %2 Like %02d in printf: output the next parameter in decimal, and always use at least two digits.
• %3 Like %03d in printf: output the next parameter in decimal, and always use at least three digits. Note that %4 and so on are _not_ defined.
• %. Output the next parameter as a single character whose ASCII code is the parameter value. Like %c in printf.
• %+CHAR Add the next parameter to the character CHAR, and output the resulting character. For example, %+ represents 0 as a space, 1 as !, etc.

The following %-sequences specify alteration of the parameters (their values, or their order) rather than encoding a parameter for output. They generate no output; they are used only for their side effects on the parameters. Also, they do not advance the "next parameter" pointer except as explicitly stated. Only %i, %r and %> are defined in standard Unix termcap. The others are GNU extensions.

• %i Increment the next two parameters. This is used for terminals that expect cursor positions in origin 1. For example, %i%d,%d would output two parameters with 1 for 0, 2 for 1, etc.
• %r Interchange the next two parameters. This is used for terminals whose cursor positioning command expects the horizontal position first.
• %s Skip the next parameter. Do not output anything.
• %b Back up one parameter. The last parameter used will become once again the next parameter to be output, and the next output command will use it. Using %b more than once, you can back up any number of parameters, and you can refer to each parameter any number of times.
• %>C1C2 Conditionally increment the next parameter. Here C1 and C2 are characters which stand for their ASCII codes as numbers. If the next parameter is greater than the ASCII code of C1, the ASCII code of C2 is added to it.
• %a OP TYPE POS Perform arithmetic on the next parameter, do not use it up, and do not output anything. Here OP specifies the arithmetic operation, while TYPE and POS together specify the other operand.

Spaces are used above to separate the operands for clarity; the spaces don't appear in the data base, where this sequence is exactly five characters long. The character OP says what kind of arithmetic operation to perform. It can be any of these characters:

• = - assign a value to the next parameter, ignoring its old value. The new value comes from the other operand.
• + - add the other operand to the next parameter.
• - - subtract the other operand from the next parameter.
• * - multiply the next parameter by the other operand.
• / - divide the next parameter by the other operand.

The "other operand" may be another parameter's value or a constant; the character TYPE says which. It can be:

• p - Use another parameter. The character POS says which parameter to use. Subtract 64 from its ASCII code to get the position of the desired parameter relative to this one. Thus, the character A as POS means the parameter after the next one; the character ? means the parameter before the next one.
• c - Use a constant value. The character POS specifies the value of the constant. The 0200 bit is cleared out, so that 0200 can be used to represent zero.

The following %-sequences are special purpose hacks to compensate for the weird designs of obscure terminals. They modify the next parameter or the next two parameters but do not generate output and do not use up any parameters. %m is a GNU extension; the others are defined in standard Unix termcap.

• %n - Exclusive-or the next parameter with 0140, and likewise the parameter after next.
• %m - Complement all the bits of the next parameter and the parameter after next.
• %B - Encode the next parameter in BCD. It alters the value of the parameter by adding six times the quotient of the parameter by ten. Here is a C statement that shows how the new value is computed: PARM = (PARM / 10) * 16 + PARM % 10;
• %D - Transform the next parameter as needed by Delta Data terminals. This involves subtracting twice the remainder of the parameter by 16. PARM -= 2 * (PARM % 16);

Terminal Type Name Conventions

Here is a list of standard suffixes and their conventional meanings:

• -w - Short for "wide". This is a mode that gives the terminal more columns than usual. This is normally a user option.
• -am - "Automatic margins". This is an alternate description for use when the terminal's margin-wrap switch is on; it contains the am flag. The implication is that normally the switch is off and the usual description for the terminal says that the switch is off.
• -nam - "No automatic margins". The opposite of -am, this names an alternative description which lacks the am flag. This implies that the terminal is normally operated with the margin-wrap switch turned on, and the normal description of the terminal says so.
• -na - "No arrows". This terminal description initializes the terminal to keep its arrow keys in local mode. This is a user option.
• -rv - "Reverse video". This terminal description causes text output for normal video to appear as reverse, and text output for reverse video to come out as normal. Often this description differs from the usual one by interchanging the two strings which turn reverse video on and off.

This is a user option; you can choose either the "reverse video" variant terminal type or the normal terminal type, and termcap will obey.

• -s - "Status". Says to enable use of a status line which ordinary output does not touch (*note Status Line::).

Some terminals have a special line that is used only as a status line. For these terminals, there is no need for an -s variant; the status line commands should be defined by default. On other terminals, enabling a status line means removing one screen line from ordinary use and reducing the effective screen height. For these terminals, the user can choose the -s variant type to request use of a status line.

• -NLINES - Says to operate with NLINES lines on the screen, for terminals such as the Ambassador which provide this as an option. Normally this is a user option; by choosing the terminal type, you control how many lines termcap will use.
• -NPAGESp - Says that the terminal has NPAGES pages worth of screen memory, for terminals where this is a hardware option.
• -unk - Says that description is not for direct use, but only for reference in tc capabilities. Such a description is a kind of subroutine, because it describes the common characteristics of several variant descriptions that would use other suffixes in place of -unk.

MS-DOS ANSI.SYS

Here is a description of the color and attribute controls supported in the ANSI.SYS driver under MS-DOS. Most console drivers and ANSI terminal emulators for Intel boxes obey these. They are a proper subset of the ECMA-48 escapes.

Bright black becomes gray, bright brown becomes yellow. These coincide with the prescriptions of the ISO 6429/ECMA-48 standard. * If the 5 attribute is on and you set a background color (40-47) it is supposed to enable bright background.

0        all attributes off
1        foreground bright
4        underscore on
5        blink on/background bright (not reliable with brown)
7        reverse-video
8        set blank (non-display)
10       set primary font
11       set first alternate font (on PCs, display ROM characters 1-31)
12       set second alternate font (on PCs, display IBM high-half chars)
3n       set foreground color       / 0=black, 1=red,     2=green, 3=brown,
4n       set background color       \ 4=blue,  5=magenta, 6=cyan,  7=white

Special characters

The special characters' default values vary from system to system. They are set with the syntax name value, where the names are listed below and the value can be given either literally, in hat notation (^C), or as an integer which may start with 0x to indicate hexadecimal, 0 to indicate octal, or any other digit to indicate decimal.

For GNU stty, giving a value of ^- or undef disables that special character. (This is incompatible with Ultrix stty, which uses a value of u to disable a special character. GNU stty treats a value u like any other, namely to set that special character to .)

Special settings

• min N - Set the minimum number of characters that will satisfy a read until the time value has expired, when -icanon is set.
• time N - Set the number of tenths of a second before reads time out if the minimum number of characters have not been read, when -icanon is set.
• ispeed N - Set the input speed to N.
• ospeed N - Set the output speed to N.
• rows N - Tell the tty kernel driver that the terminal has N rows. Non-POSIX.
• cols N, columns N - Tell the kernel that the terminal has N columns. Non-POSIX.
• size - Print the number of rows and columns that the kernel thinks the terminal has. (Systems that don't support rows and columns in the kernel typically use the environment variables LINES and COLUMNS instead; however, GNU stty does not know anything about them.) Non-POSIX.
• line N - Use line discipline N. Non-POSIX.
• speed - Print the terminal speed.
• N - Set the input and output speeds to N. N can be one of: 0 50 75 110 134 134.5 150 200 300 600 1200 1800 2400 4800 9600 19200 38400 exta extb. exta is the same as 19200; extb is the same as 38400. 0 hangs up the line if -clocal is set.

This article is meant to prepare us for the advanced mod_rewrite examples that are soon to be published. The upcoming article is going to be examples using mod_rewrite to achieve some crazy stuff... Here the focus is on identifying mod_rewrite variables and defining the limits of the module by checking the mod_rewrite source code.

For a broader mod_rewrite cheat sheet, check this printable cheat sheet.

RewriteRule Flags

C

Using the [Chain], or [C] flag, allows you to indicate that several rules should be chained together as a single logical transation. This is usually used when a transformation is sufficiently complicated to warrant breaking into several smaller steps.

CO

cookie|CO=Name:Value:Domain[:Lifetime[:Path]]

This sets a cookie on the client's browser. The cookie's name is specified by NAME and the value is VAL. The domain field is the domain of the cookie, such as '.apache.org',the optional lifetime is the lifetime of the cookie in minutes, and the optional path is the path of the cookie.

E

'env|E=VAR:VAL' (set environment variable)

RewriteRule (root|cmd)\.exe - [E=worm:nimda]

F

'forbidden|F' (force URL to be forbidden)

G

'gone|G' (force URL to be gone)

H

'handler|H=Content-handler' (force Content handler)

L

'last|L' (last rule)

N

'next|N' (next round)

NC

'nocase|NC' (no case)

NE

'noescape|NE' (no URI escaping of output)

NS

'nosubreq|NS' (not for internal sub-requests)

P

'proxy|P' (force proxy)

PT

'passthrough|PT' (pass through to next handler)

QSA

'qsappend|QSA' (query string append)

R

'redirect|R  [=code]' (force redirect)

S

'skip|S=num' (skip next rule(s))

This flag forces the rewriting engine to skip the next num rules in sequence, if the current rule matches. Use this to make pseudo if-then-else constructs: The last rule of the then-clause becomes skip=N, where N is the number of rules in the else-clause. (This is not the same as the 'chain|C' flag!)

T

'type|T=MIME-type' (force MIME type)

Force the MIME-type of the target file to be MIME-type. This can be used to set up the content-type based on some conditions. For example, the following snippet allows .php files to be displayed by mod_php if they are called with the .phps extension:

Rules and Conditions Processing Order

1. The Pattern of the RewriteRule (^/.*$) is checked first.
2. If the pattern matches, then the RewriteCond's are checked.
3. If the RewriteConditions also match, the RewriteRule is applied.

URL Rewriting Module

This module uses a rule-based rewriting engine (based on a regular-expression parser) to rewrite requested URLs on the fly.

It supports an unlimited number of additional rule conditions (which can operate on a lot of variables, even on HTTP headers) for granular matching and even external database lookups (either via plain text tables, DBM hash files or even external processes) for advanced URL substitution.

It operates on the full URLs (including the PATH_INFO part) both in per-server context (httpd.conf) and per-dir context (.htaccess) and even can generate QUERY_STRING parts on result. The rewriting result finally can lead to internal subprocessing, external request redirection or even to internal proxy throughput.

This module was originally written in April 1996 and gifted exclusively to the The Apache Software Foundation in July 1997 by

Ralf S. Engelschall rse [at] engenschall.com

Mod_Rewrite Variables Cheatsheet originally appeared on AskApache.com

If you want to learn best tricks and tips, there's only one way to do it... at least only one way that I know of. Here are some notes I created while learning about the intricacies of php sessions, it's all in the code.

[Session]
; Handler used to store/retrieve data.
session.save_handler = files

Argument passed to save_handler. In the case of files, this is the path where data files are stored. As of PHP 4.0.1, you can define the path as:

session.save_path = "N;/path"

where N is an integer. Instead of storing all the session files in /path, what this will do is use subdirectories N-levels deep, and store the session data in those directories. This is useful if you or your OS have problems with lots of files in one directory, and is a more efficient layout for servers that handle lots of sessions.

;
; NOTE 1: PHP will not create this directory structure automatically.
;         You can use the script in the ext/session dir for that purpose.
; NOTE 2: See the section on garbage collection below if you choose to
;         use subdirectories for session storage
;
; The file storage module creates files using mode 600 by default.
; You can change that by using
;
;     session.save_path = "N;MODE;/path"
;
; where MODE is the octal representation of the mode. Note that this
; does not overwrite the process's umask.
;session.save_path = "/tmp"

[PHP 5.2.0 session.save_path safe_mode and open_basedir bypass]

SecurityAlert Id: 43
CVE: CVE-2006-6383
SecurityRisk: High
Affected Software: PHP 5.2.0
Advisory URL: http://securityreason.com/achievement_securityalert/43
Vendor: http://www.php.net
 
- --- 0.Description ---
PHP is an HTML-embedded scripting language. Much of its syntax is borrowed from
C, Java and Perl with a couple of unique PHP-specific features thrown in. The
goal of the language is to allow web developers to write dynamically generated
pages quickly.
 
A nice introduction to PHP by Stig Sather Bakken can be found at
http://www.zend.com/zend/art/intro.php on the Zend website. Also, much  of the
PHP Conference Material is freely available.
 
Session support in PHP consists of a way to preserve certain data across
subsequent accesses. This enables you to build more customized applications and
increase the appeal of your web site.
 
A visitor accessing your web site is assigned a unique id, the so-called
session id. This is either stored in a cookie on the user side or is propagated
in the URL.
 
session.save_path defines the argument which is passed to the save handler. If
you choose the default files handler, this is the path where the files are
created. Defaults to /tmp. See also session_save_path().
 
There is an optional N argument to this directive that determines the number of
directory levels your session files will be spread around in. For example,
setting to '5;/tmp' may end up creating a session file and location like
/tmp/4/b/1/e/3/sess_4b1e384ad74619bd212e236e52a5a174If . In order to use N you
must create all of these directories before use. A small shell script exists in
ext/session to do this, it's called mod_files.sh. Also note that if N is used
and greater than 0 then automatic garbage collection will not be performed, see
a copy of php.ini for further information. Also, if you use N, be sure to
surround session.save_path in "quotes" because the separator (;) is also used
for comments in php.ini.
 
- --- 1. session.save_path safe mode and open basedir bypass ---
session.save_path can be set in ini_set(), session_save_path() function. In
session.save_path there must be path where you will save yours tmp file. But
syntax for session.save_path can be:
 
[/PATH]
 
OR
 
[N;/PATH]
 
N - can be a string.
 
EXAMPLES:
 
1. session_save_path("/DIR/WHERE/YOU/HAVE/ACCESS")
2. session_save_path("5;/DIR/WHERE/YOU/HAVE/ACCESS")
 
and
 
3.
session_save_path("/DIR/WHERE/YOU/DONT/HAVE/ACCESS\0;/DIR/WHERE/YOU/HAVE/ACCESS")

PHP Session File Hacks originally appeared on AskApache.com

I was going through some backups from years ago, and ran:

locate .htaccess | xargs -I'{}' cat '{}' >> master-htaccesser.txt

My site is named after reading source code because that is what helps me the most when I'm trying to learn something unusually difficult. Just like functions and aliases, it is very helpful to have cheatsheets for common commands.. not much is better than real-world examples. Unfortunately because this was compiled from hundreds of htaccess files on multiple hosts and platforms, and due to the concatenation, it's not organized.

Normally I would not publish something like this, who knows how much unreleased tricks I forgot about.. but in order to say thanks to all those working for open-source, the FSF, and to all those who don't steal content, and to all the incredible authors who shared with me (I twitter most of what I find, and follow my favs), here ya go..

ATTN: Please let me know if this is total junk or not, this is around 1/500th of my master-htaccesser.txt file.. and I'd be happy to post more if it helps..

### Section 1: Global Environment
#
# The directives in this section affect the overall operation of Apache,
# such as the number of concurrent requests it can handle or where it
# can find its configuration files.
#
#
# TZ: Your address, where problems with the server should be
# e-mailed.  This address appears on some server-generated pages, such
# as error documents.  e.g. admin@your-domain.com
#
SetEnv TZ America/Indianapolis
 
#
# ServerAdmin: Your address, where problems with the server should be
# e-mailed.  This address appears on some server-generated pages, such
# as error documents.  e.g. admin@your-domain.com
#
SetEnv SERVER_ADMIN webmaster@askapache.com
 
#
# Optionally add a line containing the server version and virtual host
# name to server-generated pages (internal error documents, FTP directory
# listings, mod_status and mod_info output etc., but not CGI generated
# documents or custom error documents).
# Set to "EMail" to also include a mailto: link to the ServerAdmin.
# Set to one of:  On | Off | EMail
#
ServerSignature Off
 
#
# Possible values for the Options directive are "None", "All",
# or any combination of:
#   Indexes Includes FollowSymLinks SymLinksifOwnerMatch ExecCGI MultiViews
#
# The Options directive is both complicated and important.  Please see
# http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/core.html#options
# for more information.
#
Options -Indexes -Includes -ExecCGI -MultiViews
 
#
# DirectoryIndex: sets the file that Apache will serve if a directory
# is requested.
#
DirectoryIndex index.php
 
#
# Action lets you define media types that will execute a script whenever
# a matching file is called. This eliminates the need for repeated URL
# pathnames for oft-used CGI file processors.
# Format: Action media/type /cgi-script/location
# Format: Action handler-name /cgi-script/location
#
Action php5-cgi /bin/php.cgi
 
#
# AddHandler allows you to map certain file extensions to "handlers":
# actions unrelated to filetype. These can be either built into the server
# or added with the Action directive (see below)
#
# To use CGI scripts outside of ScriptAliased directories:
# (You will also need to add "ExecCGI" to the "Options" directive.)
#
AddHandler php5-cgi .php .inc
 
#
# Commonly used filename extensions to character sets. You probably
# want to avoid clashes with the language extensions, unless you
# are good at carefully testing your setup after each change.
# See http://www.iana.org/assignments/character-sets for the
# official list of charset names and their respective RFCs.
#
AddDefaultCharset UTF-8
 
#
# AddType allows you to add to or override the MIME configuration
# file mime.types for specific file types.
#
#
AddType 'application/rdf+xml; charset=UTF-8' .rdf
AddType 'application/xhtml+xml; charset=UTF-8' .xhtml
AddType 'application/xhtml+xml; charset=UTF-8' .xhtml.gz
AddType 'text/html; charset=UTF-8' .html
AddType 'text/html; charset=UTF-8' .html.gz
AddType application/octet-stream .rar .chm .bz2 .tgz .msi .pdf .exe
AddType application/vnd.ms-excel .csv
AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
AddType application/x-pilot .prc .pdb
AddType application/x-shockwave-flash .swf
AddType application/xrds+xml .xrdf
AddType text/plain .ini .sh .bsh .bash .awk .nawk .gawk .csh .var .c .in .h .asc .md5 .sha .sha1
AddType video/x-flv .flv
 
#
# AddEncoding allows you to have certain browsers uncompress
# information on the fly. Note: Not all browsers support this.
# Despite the name similarity, the following Add* directives have nothing
# to do with the FancyIndexing customization directives above.
#
AddEncoding x-compress .Z
AddEncoding x-gzip .gz .tgz
 
#
# DefaultType: the default MIME type the server will use for a document
# if it cannot otherwise determine one, such as from filename extensions.
# If your server contains mostly text or HTML documents, "text/plain" is
# a good value.  If most of your content is binary, such as applications
# or images, you may want to use "application/octet-stream" instead to
# keep browsers from trying to display binary files as though they are
# text.
#
DefaultType text/html

# Pass: Allows request to continue, further filters could still halt request.
# Allow: Allows matching requests through, will not be tested against other filters.
# Deny: Stops the request outright, returns a HTTP 500 error code by default.
# Status: Used to specify an alternate HTTP error code.
# Redirect: Matching requests are redirected to the provided URL.
# Exec: Allows execution of a local system binary or script.
# Log: Logs request only.
# Nolog: Does not log request.
# Chain: Allows you to create list of filters for more granulated security. All filters must be cleared before action is taken with the final filter.

### Section 1: Global Environment
#
# The directives in this section affect the overall operation of Apache,
# such as the number of concurrent requests it can handle or where it
# can find its configuration files.
#
#
# TZ: Your address, where problems with the server should be
# e-mailed.  This address appears on some server-generated pages, such
# as error documents.  e.g. admin@your-domain.com
#
SetEnv TZ America/Indianapolis
 
#
# ServerAdmin: Your address, where problems with the server should be
# e-mailed.  This address appears on some server-generated pages, such
# as error documents.  e.g. admin@your-domain.com
#
SetEnv SERVER_ADMIN webmaster@askapache.com
 
#
# Possible values for the Options directive are "None", "All",
# or any combination of:
#   Indexes Includes FollowSymLinks SymLinksifOwnerMatch ExecCGI MultiViews
#
# The Options directive is both complicated and important.  Please see
# http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/core.html#options
# for more information.
#
Options  +FollowSymLinks -ExecCGI -Indexes -Includes -MultiViews
 
#
# DirectoryIndex: sets the file that Apache will serve if a directory
# is requested.
#
DirectoryIndex index.html index.php /index.php
 
#
# The following lines prevent .htaccess and .htpasswd files from being
# viewed by Web clients.
#
<filesMatch "^\.ht">
    Order allow,deny
    Deny from all
  Satisfy All
</filesMatch>
 
#
# DefaultType: the default MIME type the server will use for a document
# if it cannot otherwise determine one, such as from filename extensions.
# If your server contains mostly text or HTML documents, "text/plain" is
# a good value.  If most of your content is binary, such as applications
# or images, you may want to use "application/octet-stream" instead to
# keep browsers from trying to display binary files as though they are
# text.
#
DefaultType text/html
 
#
# Optionally add a line containing the server version and virtual host
# name to server-generated pages (internal error documents, FTP directory
# listings, mod_status and mod_info output etc., but not CGI generated
# documents or custom error documents).
# Set to "EMail" to also include a mailto: link to the ServerAdmin.
# Set to one of:  On | Off | EMail
#
ServerSignature Off

Actual Htaccess Files from My Server originally appeared on AskApache.com

The bottom line for this article is that I want to make WordPress as fast, secure, and easy to install, run, and manage because I am using it more and more for client production sites, I will work for days in order to solve an issue so that I never have to spend time on that issue again. Time is money in this industry and that is ultimately (time) what there is to gain by tweaking WordPress.

Note: I spent no time on readability, this is primarily a read the code and figure it out article.. This is for advanced users looking for a reference or discussion and for those of you looking to advance. Feedback would be great if you make it that far..

For a better handle on the way I like to structure web site directories, see Optimize a Website for Speed, Security, and Easy Management but note it is a bit outdated compared to what I'm doing now. I don't have the luxury of using only one type of server, or hosting provider anymore, so I have been working towards making things even more portable in order to move from host to host from server to server without issues i.e. my portable .bash_profile.

So I've been basically experimenting various ways to accomplish that and thought I would share what I am currently doing for my benefit and hopefully get some input. All of my WP installs run the development version, and one main idea with my setups is that upgrading is automated. So I really keep the WordPress install clean and use plugins and wp-config.php to do all the customization.

• Portability - Hands-free upgrades and easy to move
• Security - Additional security and protection
• Speed - Less CPU and Disk I/O
• Customization - All my favorite customizations

wp-config.php

These are the main settings I use.. Seriously this is more like an interactive article, because to understand it you will need to do some code grepping. You may want to grab a jolt.

ASKAPACHE_ROOT

The ASKAPACHE_ROOT variable is just a better way for me to be able to include and access all the different files in my site tree. For instance, in my non-wp php files, I can do this:

!defined('ASKAPACHE_ROOT') && require $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . '/wp-config.php';
include(ASKAPACHE_ROOT . '/includes/custom-download.inc.php');

ASKAPACHE_LOCK

This is one of my all-time favorite hacks, that I think is one of the most useful methods I employ as a web developer. This allows me to use far-future-expire headers for optimum caching, while still forcing browsers to re-validate every day or so automatically, or forcing them to re-validate whenever I change the suffix. This takes advantage of the mod_rewrite trick that I use on EVERY site I run, definately worth learning. Because I practice best-practice web-standards, for every web site I create a single css file and javascript file, which I then add to the template like:

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="all" href="http://static.askapache.com/c/apache-0<?php echo ASKAPACHE_LOCK?>.css" />
<script src="http://static.askapache.com/j/apache-0<?php echo ASKAPACHE_LOCK;?>.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

Debugging WordPress

One of my secrets for getting really good at this stuff is to master debugging. There is really not ever a time when I am working on a site that I don't have color-highlighted logs scrolling automatically in an ssh window. It's really almost impossible to fix problems with wordpress or do any kind of advanced anything without being able to view debugging info. At first I relied heavily on a custom php.ini being available on the server, but after having to deal with many hosts who don't allow php.ini files I now rely completely on setting values using ini_set for ultimate portability. Detailed towards the end of this article and is also included in this wp-config.php

/**#@+

Ultimate Security Tweaks

Well, ultimate for WP's built-in keys and password functions, this is all for wp-config.php keep in mind. This is a very neccessary and recommended step, and is one of the only things I modify for each new installation.

Security KEYS

If like me you are familiar with password-cracking software like John the ripper, rainbow hash tables, l0pht-crack, etc.. then you will like to know that you can specify your own keys and salts for the encryption used by WP. They are AUTH_KEY, AUTH_SALT, SECURE_AUTH_KEY, SECURE_AUTH_SALT, LOGGED_IN_KEY, LOGGED_IN_SALT, NONCE_KEY, NONCE_SALT, SECRET_KEY and SECRET_SALT.

A random and long key gives you better encryption, and exponentially increasing that is using a random and long salt for the encryption. Encryptions with known salts are incredibly easy to decrypt compared to encryptions with secure salts, because the salt + key individually need to be guessed in order to find a matching hash, vs. just the key if the salt is known. See: Locating weak passwords.

A secret key is a hashing salt which makes your site harder to hack and access harder to crack by adding random elements to the password.

In simple terms, a secret key is a password with elements that make it harder to generate enough options to break through your security barriers. A password like "password" or "test" is simple and easily broken. A random, unpredictable password such as "88a7da62429ba6ad3cb3c76a09641fc" takes years to come up with the right combination.

For more information on the technical background and breakdown of secret keys and secure passwords, see:

• WordPress Support Forum - HOWTO: Set up secret keys in WordPress 2.6+
• Wikipedia's explanation of Password Cracking

I like to use the WordPress.org secret-key service 4 times. That's because for each key and salt I like to do: (1 key from api +random keyboard input+1 key from api).

/**#@+
 * Authentication Unique Keys.
 *
 * Change these to different unique phrases!
 * You can generate these using the {@link https://api.wordpress.org/secret-key/1.1/ WordPress.org secret-key service}
 * You can change these at any point in time to invalidate all existing cookies.
 * This will force all users to have to log in again.
 *
 * @since 2.6.0
 *
 * Get salt to add to hashes to help prevent attacks.
 *
 * The secret key is located in two places: the database in case the secret key
 * isn't defined in the second place, which is in the wp-config.php file. If you
 * are going to set the secret key, then you must do so in the wp-config.php
 * file.
 *
 * The secret key in the database is randomly generated and will be appended to
 * the secret key that is in wp-config.php file in some instances. It is
 * important to have the secret key defined or changed in wp-config.php.
 *
 * If you have installed WordPress 2.5 or later, then you will have the
 * SECRET_KEY defined in the wp-config.php already. You will want to change the
 * value in it because hackers will know what it is. If you have upgraded to
 * WordPress 2.5 or later version from a version before WordPress 2.5, then you
 * should add the constant to your wp-config.php file.
 *
 * Below is an example of how the SECRET_KEY constant is defined with a value.
 * You must not copy the below example and paste into your wp-config.php. If you
 * need an example, then you can have a
 * {@link https://api.wordpress.org/secret-key/1.1/ secret key created} for you.
 *
 * Salting passwords helps against tools which has stored hashed values of
 * common dictionary strings. The added values makes it harder to crack if given
 * salt string is not weak.
 *
 * @since 2.5
 * @link https://api.wordpress.org/secret-key/1.1/ Create a Secret Key for wp-config.php

Using SSL for Admin and Login

SSL is kinda required from my point of view, it is just way to easy to sniff data off the wire otherwise. At least with SSL you force them to use tools like burpsuite, paros proxy, webscarab, etc..

/** @since 2.6.0  */
!defined('FORCE_SSL_ADMIN') && define('FORCE_SSL_ADMIN', true);
 
/** @since 2.6.0  */
!defined('FORCE_SSL_LOGIN') && define('FORCE_SSL_LOGIN', true);

Mod_Rewrite to Force SSL

This is pretty cool, it forces non-https for all urls except for /wp-admin and wp-login.php, which both require https. It also checks for the logged_in_cookie, and if that is present in the request then it doesn't force non-https. Kinda confusing if you don't have a mod_rewrite cheatsheet.

RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/(wp-admin|wp-login\.php).*$ [NC,OR]

Cookies!

There's always a little comfort in having non-default cookies for security (against auto-bots), and using shorter names also means smaller HTTP Packets.

The $cookie_hash is my hack to get around the fact that COOKIEHASH isn't definable in wp-config.

I personally don't use.

//!defined( 'MUPLUGINDIR' ) && define( 'MUPLUGINDIR', 'wp-content/mu-plugins' ); // Relative to ABSPATH.  For back compat.

WordPress Database

This is usually the only thing I have to manually edit when creating a new site, unless I just use the same DB and modify the $table_prefix, (farther down). I run everything I possibly can in UTF-8, but if you don't already know alot about character sets, wow it is one of the most confusing things so you may want to save learning about that topic for another day. Otherwise the following are helpful (and show how confusing character sets are!)

• Character Sets and Collations MySQL Support
• Converting Database Character Sets
• UTF-8 character sets (UTF-8)

If you ever setup WP to use the builtin membership features, make sure you learn about the CUSTOM_USER_TABLE and CUSTOM_USER_META_TABLE constants, I've found them very helpful.

/**#@+
 * MySQL settings
 */
/** The name of the database for WordPress */
define('DB_NAME', 'askapachewpblog75');
 
/** The username to access the database */
define('DB_USER', 'askapache245d');
 
/** The password for the username to access the database */
define('DB_PASSWORD', 'asdfklj2340');
 
/** The hostname to connect to the database at */
define('DB_HOST', 'mysql.askapache.com');
 
/** The charset of the database */
define('DB_CHARSET', 'utf8');
 
/** The collation of the database */
define('DB_COLLATE', 'utf8_general_ci');

$table_prefix

The $table_prefix is the value placed in the front of your database tables. Change the value if you want to use something other than wp_ for your database prefix. Typically this is changed if you are installing multiple WordPress blogs in the same database, and also for enhanced security.

Its a safe and good idea to change this value pre-installation to add more security to your WordPress blog. Exploits attempted against your WordPress blog by malicious crackers often are built with the premise that your blog uses the prefix wp_, by changing the value you mitigate some attack vectors.

/**
 * WordPress Database Table prefix.
 *
 * You can have multiple installations in one database if you give each a unique
 * prefix. Only numbers, letters, and underscores please!
 */
$table_prefix  = 'ar15_';
 
/** CUSTOM_USER_TABLE and CUSTOM_USER_META_TABLE are used to designated that the user and usermeta tables normally utilized by WordPress are not used, instead these values/tables are used to store your user information. */
//!defined('CUSTOM_USER_TABLE') && define('CUSTOM_USER_TABLE', $table_prefix . 'my_users');
//!defined('CUSTOM_USER_META_TABLE') && define('CUSTOM_USER_META_TABLE', $table_prefix . 'my_usermeta');

Setup PHP Ini Settings

/** Turns the output of errors on or off, you really never want this on, you should only view errors by reading the log file. */
ini_set('display_errors', WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY);
 
/** Tells whether script error messages should be logged to the server's error log or error_log. */
ini_set('log_errors', 'On');
 
/** http://us.php.net/manual/en/timezones.php */
ini_set('date.timezone', 'America/Indianapolis');
 
/** Where to log php errors */
ini_set('error_log', ASKAPACHE_ROOT . '/logs/php_error.log');
 
/** Set the memory limit, otherwise defaults to '32M' */
ini_set('memory_limit', WP_MEMORY_LIMIT);

Sessions are slow

So I only use sessions when I have a specific use... In this case I need sessions only when one of the tools in the /online-tools/ directory is being used. And that is for the captcha image. In the future I won't ever use sessions.

if(preg_match( '#^/online-tools/#',$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'])) session_start();

Include Custom Files

Sure you could use the my-hacks.php that WP allows, or you can just stick your functions in your TEMPLATEPATH/functions.php file, but they are executed only after the wp-settings.php file, which may be too late for your file.

In the past I've also used the auto_prepend_file settings to run my script before anything (index.php) but I ran into some issues on different hosts, and it wasn't as portable.

This is useful because you can have a file with globally available functions that you can use in non-WP areas as well as WP areas. I am moving away from this more and more as I learn more about classes and build plugins instead for portability.

include_once ASKAPACHE_ROOT . '/includes/myfunctions.inc';
 
/** Sets up WordPress vars and included files. */
require_once(ABSPATH . 'wp-settings.php');
?>

Some Useful PHP

I am constantly trying to make my sites and code more portable, so I am using plugins alot more to accomplish things that I use to do with separate php. Here are some examples of minimal php.

add_filter("the_generator", create_function('$a','return "";'));
add_filter('the_content', create_function('$a', 'return ((is_feed())? $a."<p><a href=\"".get_permalink()."\">".get_the_title()."</a> originally appeared on ".get_bloginfo("name").".</p>" : $a);'), 99999);
add_filter('excerpt_length', create_function('$a', 'return 300;'),99);
add_filter('excerpt_more', create_function('$a', 'return "&hellip;";'),99);
add_action( 'wp_head', create_function('$a','echo "<link rel=\"pingback\" href=\"'.get_bloginfo('pingback_url').'\" />\n";'), 95 );
add_action( 'wp_head', create_function('$a','echo "<link rel=\"schema.rss\" href=\"http://purl.org/rss/1.0/\" />\n";'), 96 );
add_action( 'wp_head', create_function('$a','echo "<link rel=\"schema.rel\" href=\"http://purl.org/vocab/relationship/\" />\n";'), 97 );
add_action( 'wp_head', create_function('$a','echo "<link rel=\"meta\" type=\"application/rdf+xml\" href=\"/foaf.rdf\" />\n";'), 98 );
add_action( 'wp_head', create_function('$a','echo "<link href=\"/favicon.ico\" rel=\"shortcut icon\" type=\"image/x-icon\" />\n";'), 99 );

Debugging Note

If you read this far than you probably know how important debugging is, but I sometimes like to stick the best tips deep in my articles to make sure only YOU find it. GRTFM isn't used on this site, it's mostly a requirement because my writing can get pretty bad.. The point, debugging is more than a crucial requirement if you want to do anything cool. Don't worry I got you.. check my AskApache Debug Viewer Plugin from the official WP site. It's pretty close to providing as verbose amount of information that I could possibly figure out how to get out of php, probably more than you have ever seen at least, I focused on quantity. I use it all the time on new installs as there is no setup required and it tells me advanced information about the setup of the server, hacker code for sure.

Here's a quick function to see set global vars, I just think this is interesting code.

function askapache_global_debug(){
  global $_GET,$_POST,$_COOKIE,$_SESSION,$_ENV,$_FILES,$_SERVER,$_REQUEST,$HTTP_POST_FILES,$HTTP_POST_VARS,$HTTP_SERVER_VARS,$HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA,$HTTP_GET_VARS,$HTTP_COOKIE_VARS,$HTTP_ENV_VARS;
  $gv=create_function('$n','global $$n; ob_start(); if ( is_array($$n) && sizeof($$n)>0 && print("[{$n}]\n") ) print_r($$n);return ob_get_clean();');
  foreach (array('_GET','_POST','_COOKIE','_SESSION','_ENV','_FILES','_SERVER','_REQUEST','HTTP_POST_FILES','HTTP_POST_VARS','HTTP_SERVER_VARS','HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA','HTTP_GET_VARS','HTTP_COOKIE_VARS','HTTP_ENV_VARS') as $k)echo $gv($k);
  print_r(get_defined_constants());
}

Advanced WordPress wp-config.php Tweaks originally appeared on AskApache.com

Advanced Web Development by AskApache is a Firefox Collection I created for myself to make finding and installing my favorite Firefox Add-ons simple and easy.

My Setup

As this screenshot shows, I only use a handful of add-ons at a time. These buttons allow me to clear the DNS/Cookies/Cache for whichever site I'm on when I click it. Very very helpful for me as a web designer. The 4th button there is just a restart button. Other than those, Firebug, YSlow, LastPass, and Web Developer are the only ones I always use regularly.

I like the idea of the last.fm but it's not as powerful as the site, which is awesome. Lately I've been listening to Kings of Leon Radio...

Slow Firefox

The more add-ons you have, disabled or not, the slower Firefox is. (unless you are running your profile folder in TMPFS). Also, bookmarks and settings like that have a performance hit. I have been using Firefox since it launched way back when, and I have always kept my bookmarks when moving to new machines and new installations.. So with over 5 thousand bookmarks I finally did some debugging and discovered that was a huge cause of Firefox acting slow. Now I am trying to migrate them all over to Google's Gmarks, which knowing Google will be awesome eventually.

Multiple Firefox Installations, Sorta

The solution to all these problems is to use separate Firefox profiles which use separate folders to store your profile-specific extensions and settings. So I have profiles with upwards of 40 Addons installed and enabled, and another profile that is built for speed... It's very very slow to be running Firebug and have multiple tabs open.. You can use the profilemanager to load them specific profiles from the command line. I personally use separate icons on my Windows Quick Launch that I just modified the shortcut pointing to firefox to also have the profile commandline. Note also that you can have multiple profiles open and running simultaneously.. This lets you do some crazy networking and other random hacks like having many Firefox instances running each of which is configured to use a separate SOCKS Proxy or network interface, so you can really open up those pipes for some intense txrx.

You can do some very powerful things with Firefox that most people are unaware of, if you are interested start with these:

• Setting up an extension development environment
• Firefox Command Line Options
