The damage sustained from RSI is due to structural changes in the muscle fiber as well as due to decreased blood flow. Nerves can also be involved. The immobile tissue and surrounding inflammation compress the nerve which can cause numbness or tingling and eventually weakness if the nerve is damaged severely.

Razavi gives some excellent reference sites for tips about setting up your workstation, posture, and exercises:

• Workstation setup
• Posture
• Yoga & RSI exercises
• Safe Computing Tips
• Computer Related Repetitive Strain Injury

This is a serious matter for anyone who works or plays infront of a computer. Here a few tips for safe working from Dr. Taraneh Razavi:

• Breaks should be taken every 30-45 minutes for at least 5 minutes. If you need assistance there are free downloadable timers that will help remind you to do so.
• Stretch your arms, hands, neck, and back during breaks. This yoga site demonstrates some exercises.
• Maintain posture alignment. Don’t slouch on the couch with the laptop.
• Work stations should be reviewed initially and with each office move. Adjust your chair, monitor, keyboard, mouse, laptop. Alternate keyboards and mice periodically.
• Shift your gaze from the computer screen to the distance. And don’t forget to blink!
• Limit non-essential computer use. This may be heresy — but do give the surfing, gaming, emailing, and text messaging a rest.
• If pain occurs or persists, see your doctor, who may recommend wrist brace, ice packs, anti-inflammatory medication such as ibuprofen, cortisone injections, physical therapy, and most importantly, rest to allow healing. Don’t procrastinate in addressing your symptoms — the sooner you tend to them, the better off you are.

If you don’t know what you’re doing - don’t blame me if your server gets all whacked. You should follow these instructions only if you feel comfortable with DNS and the Apache configuration file.

NOTE: Replace yourdomain.com with your actual domain, and 63.63.63.63 with the actual IP your site is using.

1. Add a DNS entry to your site DNS zone:
   
   *.yourdomain.com. 14400 IN A 63.63.63.63

   I have cPanel, and I used the “Edit DNS Zone” tool to add this record. Very easy! :)

2. Restart Named service. (/etc/init.d/named restart)
3. At this point everything worked for me fine, and I didn’t have to follow this step. A lot of people DO advise to add the new alias to your ServerAlias under the site VirtualHost in the Apache configuration file (/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf) like this: ServerAlias www.yourdomain.com yourdomain.com *.yourdomain.com
   Your VirtualHost should looks something like this:
   <virtualhost 63.63.63.63>
   ServerAlias www.yourdomain.com yourdomain.com *.yourdomain.com
   ServerAdmin webmaster@yourdomain.com
   DocumentRoot /home/yourdomain/public_html
   BytesLog domlogs/yourdomain.com-bytes_log
   ServerName www.yourdomain.com
   <ifmodule mod_userdir.c>
   Userdir disabled
   Userdir enabled yourdomain_user
   </ifmodule>
   <ifmodule mod_php4.c>
   php_admin_value open_basedir “/home/yourdomain:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php:/tmp”
   </ifmodule>
   User yourdomain
   Group yourdomain
   CustomLog domlogs/yourdomain.com combined
   ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /home/yourdomain/public_html/cgi-bin/
   </virtualhost>
4. If you edited the httpd.conf file, save it, and restart the Apache service. (service httpd restart)

Alright! You can now try out your new wildcard subdomains, they are supposed to work now, and redirect any subdomain to the root of your website. You can now grab the subdomain in PHP, or use some .htaccess magic to redirect them into their special folders.

Here’s the code to paste into your .htaccess file to redirect subdomain calls into a specific directory:

Or if you would like to send the subdomain as a URL query parameter, replace the LAST RewriteRule above with:

Here is a PHP code snippet of how to capture the subdomain name:

In addition to the better-known SAX support inherited from PHP 4, PHP 5 supports DOM according to the W3C standard and XSLT with the very fast libxslt engine. It also incorporates the new PHP-specific SimpleXML extension and a much improved, standards-compliant SOAP extension. Given the increasing importance of XML, the PHP developers decided to enable more XML support by default. This means that you now get SAX, DOM and SimpleXML enabled out of the box, which ensures that they will be installed on many more servers in the future. XSLT and SOAP support, however, still need to be explicitly configured into a PHP build.

The SimpleXML is an amazing easy object to handle XML data, it’s still new, so don’t expect it to be complete, but it certainly is a godsend.

XML in PHP 5 - What’s New?
PHP Manual: DOM Functions
Array to XML function for PHP

SimpleXML example:

<select id=”reports_categories” name=”reports_categories”>
	<option value=”">[Please Select]</option>
	<?php
	$xml = simplexml_load_file(’reports.xml’);

	foreach($xml->category as $category)
	{
		echo ‘<option value=”‘ . $category[’name’] .
			‘”>’ . $category[’text’] . ‘</option>’;
	};

	unset($xml);
	?>
</select>

The XML:

<reports>
	<category name=”booked_jobs” text=”Booked Jobs”>
		<report name=”job_date” text=”By Job Date”>
			<screenshot>booked_job_date.gif</screenshot>
			<transform>reports_xsl/booked_job_date.xsl</transform>
			<description>
				View your jobs by a range of dates
			</description>
		</report>
		<report name=”book_date” text=”By Book Date”>
			<transform>reports_xsl/booked_book_date.xsl</transform>
			<description>
				View your jobs by a range of dates
			</description>
		</report>
		<report name=”closed_date” text=”By Closed Date”>
			<transform>reports_xsl/booked_close_date.xsl</transform>
			<description>
				View your jobs by a range of dates
			</description>
		</report>
	</category>
</reports>

It made me laugh. So come’ on!
