FireFox: Browser Many Bugs dan Not Safe???

Label:

According to the research, it turns out Mozilla FireFox browser has a number of bugs and security issues more than that of Internet Explorer, Safari, and Opera are combined at once.

From the study also revealed that although the third party browser that has many problems, but software development team behind him able to handle it very well.




Research conducted by Secunia, the reliability of software testing specialist company stating that FireFox has 115 vulnerabilities recorded in the year 2008. Far more than IE which only has 31 problems, which have 32 hole Safari, and Opera, which turned out only has 30 security holes.

However, when compared to Internet Explorer, Mozilla is able to overcome the security hole is much faster and no need to provide notification to users that a patch is underway.

For instance, Microsoft took 110 days to address two vulnerabilities published in the category of "high to moderate" while Mozilla's only takes 43 days to fix three vulnerabilities are uncovered and into the category of "less critical" and "not critical".

FireFox continues to erode the dominance of Internet Explorer. Currently, according to reports NetApplications, Mozilla has a 21.77 percent share of the global browser market, while IE left with 67.44 percent. Fell more than 7 percent in the last year.

Fastest Web Browser and the Worst

Label:

The effort Apple put Nitro Engine to boost the speed of Safari 4 is not in vain. Apple's latest browser is still in beta version proved far more quickly than its competitors.

Nitro Engine is super fast JavaScript engine that is used to multiply the Safari browser's JavaScript capabilities up to 30 times faster. Speed racing than Internet Explorer and three times faster than Mozilla, Firefox 3.

Not only that, Apple also improve the performance of HTML (HyperText Markup Language) in this browser, so the ability to open the pages three times faster than Internet Explorer 7 and Firefox.

Is this really or Apple just exaggerating? Not really. Tests on the Safari 4 Beta using the SunSpider spent 657 milliseconds. While on Safari 3 takes more time, 2970 milliseconds.





Firefox 3 requires a much longer time is 2399 milliseconds, indicating the speed of this browser is much less than the browser that requires less time.

Even the latest beta version of Firefox 3.1 (Firefox 3.1) is also developing an improved JavaScript engine speed and said a lot faster than Firefox previously only reached the figure of 1034 milliseconds in testing.

While in this test Internet Explorer shows the worst performance. The time needed to complete testing of 19 902 milliseconds. But the Internet Wxplorer 8 is much better with the numbers 4137 milliseconds.

The only thing that could pursue Chrome Safari 4 Beta is 1.0. Browsers that developed it, although still slower than Safari 4 but shows the results that are not too far away, 853 milliseconds.

All tests are run on iMac computers with the Windows Vista operating system. Tests run on iMac with Mac OS X Leopard shows Safari 4 Beta scored 639 milliseconds, and Firefox 3.0 in 2535 scored in milliseconds.

With such performance, no wonder Apple somewhat inflated. "Safari is always talking about its performance, innovative features and web standards. Safari 4 is a major step in encouraging innovation browser, "said senior director of system software, Apple's global product marketing, Brian Croll.

He quickly mastered BASIC, a computer programming language, and hackers along with its own study on the Lakeside, he spent time with hours and hours writing code, doing games, and generally learn a lot about computers. "He was an eccentric," as one of his teachers to give Gates the surname. Bill Gates took classes at Harvard University in Cambridge starting in 1975. There he met with Paul Allen at school together. Together with Paul Allen, Bill Gates continues to develop his talents in the field of computer programming. However, Bill Gates decided to leave (drop out) to donate wakunya to Microsoft.

James Gosling, Arsitek Bahasa Pemrograman Java

Label:

COFFEE from Java (Java Coffee) is famous for high flavor and one of the best Arabica species in the world. But for James Gosling and colleagues at Sun Microsystems, the brewed coffee in a cafe, Peet became the inspiration for the name of the new computer programming language is successfully developed. Java of choice replacing the name of Oak, the tree species that grow in front of the window workspace Gosling.

Greentalk Gosling is the name that was first introduced to the programming language with file extension ". Gt" before becoming Oak. Unfortunately the name of Oak've used other companies, namely Oak Technology as a product trademark.

Attempts to change the name was not as easy as imagined. At the suggestion of lawyers and law firms, conducted the debate with different opinions of engineers, marketing managers, legal advisers, and directors of Sun Microsystems to find an appropriate name for days. The names that later became the candidate is Silk, DNA, and Java. I do not know anyone who first proposed the name Java or since when the Java name used, was not considered because of alternative options is done in a collective name. Later, Kim Polese, the marketing manager at that time that now is the CEO of Marimba Inc.. finally use the Java trademark.

BIRTH Java originated from Sun Microsystems' ambitions to create a universal platform that can integrate a variety of machines. Secret project that brought a big mission was given the name Project Green. The project involves Patrick Naughton, Mike Sheridan, and James Gosling and then assisted 13 people staff. They worked behind closed doors and isolate themselves in a building on Sand Hill Road, Menlo Park, California, USA. Project that began in December 1990 finally bearing fruit after working hard for 18 months and spent millions of dollars. On 3 September 1992 they demonstrated Star7, a PDA with a touchscreen input (touch screen) that can run a variety of interactive applications. Including creating an animated mascot Duke the Java.

James Gosling and his colleagues has led to a new programming language (Java) that can run on all platforms with electronic devices. Platform differences resolved by creating a virtual machine on the architecture of the new programming language. The virtual machine will translate programming code into a recognizable language of whatever machine. Java is also known to be very reliable and has its own security system.

Java is present on the right momentum as the Internet and the needs of emerging multimedia applications. James Gosling prove the greatness of Java with John Gage, director of Sun's Science Office when giving a presentation titled "Hollywood-meets-Silicon-Valley" in early 1995. He managed to show a three-dimensional molecular motion in the middle of a computer screen by moving the mouse. Moreover, since HotJava (formerly called WebRunner) Java-based internet browser ready to be launched a month later. Cooperation between Sun Microsystems and Netscape to install Java on the browser Netscape Communicator when it was released and then go to accelerate Java fame.

Since its release on May 23, 1995, immediately jumped into the Java programming language favorites. Java produces a new wave in the world of computing. Moreover, the Sun provides the Java source code free of charge via the Internet. Thus Java soon spread and everyone can try and give feedback. The response provided Java users contribute to improve the alpha version (1.0a2) up to version 2 at this time. The success of Sun's Java presents as a leader in Internet communications can not be separated from the role of James Gosling, architect of the Java programming language.

James Gosling was born on May 19, 1956 of three children near Calgary, Canada. Since childhood he was very interested in electronics. At age 12, his parents found him managed to make the game tic tac toe with the use of component parts telephone and television. Seeing the interest and talent, a friend of his parents when asked Gosling to the computer lab at the University of Calgary. At that time his age was 14 years.

Since then he is more often spent many hours in computer labs rather than learning in class. Graduating from high school, he continued at the University of Calgary. While completing undergraduate, he developed the Emacs text editor, who later became editor of the most widely used text on the Unix operating system. Then he took a Master of education at the University of Alberta before continuing doctoral program at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh. He received his Ph.D. after successfully defended his thesis titled "The Algebraic Manipulation of Constraints" in 1983.

He immediately joined IBM after college. Unfortunately the results of his work was never produced. A year later, he joined Sun Microsystems to become part of the Green Team to carry out secret projects Project Green. Thanks to his ability, his career skyrocketed immediately so that the position of Vice President (VP), Sun Microsystems and Chief Technology Officer (CTO) Suns Developer Product. Currently, he is still contributing to the Real-Time Specification of Java and a researcher at Sun labs for software development tools. In addition to the Java programming language architect, he also built satellite data acquisition systems, multiprocessor for Unix, several compilers, mail systems and the main engineer Maker window manager NEWS (Network Extensible Windowing System).

Will he also recalled the island of Java every time the heat of the coffee brewing on the sidelines of the Java programming? What is clear he is always happy to say, "If the world speak English, the internet talk with Java ."***

Simulation of Artificial AJAX

Label:

Hi all colleagues, this time I will share knowledge about the world of ya but web programming. This time I will discuss about the AJAX simulation but could not use AJAX. Qo Why? Is not it funny?
We will make our current simulation as data input. So Click the Save button, then what we are typing in the Input Text will appear at the bottom of an area without doing the refresh page.

If you're still curious, please try the tutorial below:


1. We create a php file named index.php which more or less like the script below.


<html>
<body>
<div id="menu">
<form action="proses.php" target="myiframe">
<input type="text" name="kata">
<input type="submit" value="Simpan">
</form>
</div>
<div id="isi"></div>
<iframe name="myiframe" style="display:none;"></iframe>

</body></html>

2. Create another file named script proses.php more or less as follows ..

<div id="data">
<?php
echo $_GET['kata'];
?>
</div>
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
//--- Javascript below will move the contents of the iframe to the main document.
top.document.getElementById('isi').innerHTML=document.getElementById('data').innerHTML;

</script>


Please try .. If there is any script above is not working properly, Please leave a comment.

Please understand, this is only a simulation only. Could be developed if we has an database.
