Olympic Games

The Olympic Games (French: les Jeux olympiques, JO), is a major international event featuring summer and winter sports, in which thousands of athletes participate in a variety of competitions. The Olympic Games are considered to be the world’s foremost sports competition and more than 200 nations participate. The Games are currently held every two years, with Summer and Winter Olympic Games alternating, although they occur every four years within their respective seasonal games. Originally, the ancient Olympic Games were held in Olympia, Greece, from the 8th century BC to the 4th century AD. Baron Pierre de Coubertin founded the International Olympic Committee (IOC) in 1894. The IOC has since become the governing body of the Olympic Movement, whose structure and actions are defined by the Olympic Charter.

 HTML:-

What is HTML5?

HTML5 will be the new standard for HTML.
The previous version of HTML, HTML 4.01, came in 1999. The web has changed a lot since then.
HTML5 is still a work in progress. However, the major browsers support many of the new HTML5 elements and APIs.

---

How Did HTML5 Get Started?

HTML5 is a cooperation between the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) and the Web Hypertext Application Technology Working Group (WHATWG).
WHATWG was working with web forms and applications, and W3C was working with XHTML 2.0. In 2006, they decided to cooperate and create a new version of HTML.
Some rules for HTML5 were established:

• New features should be based on HTML, CSS, DOM, and JavaScript
• Reduce the need for external plugins (like Flash)
• Better error handling
• More markup to replace scripting
• HTML5 should be device independent
• The development process should be visible to the public

---

The HTML5 <!DOCTYPE>

In HTML5 there is only one <!doctype> declaration, and it is very simple:

<!DOCTYPE html>

---

Minimum HTML5 Document

Below is a simple HTML5 document, with the minimum of required tags:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Title of the document</title>
</head>

<body>
The content of the document......
</body>

</html> 

 

CSS :-

CSS 4

W3C started drafting CSS 4 on Sep 29, 2009.However, it is currently not supported by any major web browser.
One of the new proposed selectors is :matches().

CSS 2.1 is currently the standard with 3.0 in discussion.

PHP:-

	6.0.0		The development of PHP 6 has been delayed because the developers have decided the current approach to handling of instance unicode is not a good one, and are considering alternate ways in the next version of PHP. The updates that were intended for PHP 6 were added to PHP 5.3.0 (namespace support, late static bindings, lambda functions, closures, goto) and 5.4.0 (traits, closure rebinding) instead.

PHP 5.4.4 (Current stable)

Complete Source Code

• PHP 5.4.4 (tar.bz2) [10,890Kb] - 14 June 2012
  md5: 1fd98dc3f6f3805cd67bff12a26ed77f
• PHP 5.4.4 (tar.gz) [13,731Kb] - 14 June 2012
  md5: 8366c3626f2275ab8c7ef5e2d6bc5bd7 

JAVASCRIPT:-

Using JavaScript 1.7

In order to use some of the new features of JavaScript 1.7, you need to specify that you wish to use JavaScript 1.7. In HTML or XUL code, use:

view plainprint?

1. <script type="application/javascript;version=1.7"/>  

When using the JavaScript shell, you need to set the version you wish to use using the -version 170 switch on the command line or using the version() function:

view plainprint?

1. version(170);  

The features that require the use of the new keywords "yield" and "let" require you to specify version 1.7 because existing code might use those keywords as variable or function names. The features that do not introduce new keywords (destructuring assignment and array comprehensions) can be used without specifying the JavaScript version.

STRUTS :-

12 May 2012 - Struts 2.3.4 General Availability Release

The latest production release of Struts 2 is Struts 2.3.4, which was promoted to "General Availability" (or "Ready for Primetime") on 24 May 2012. The version notes are available online.

04 Dec 2008 - Struts 1.3.10 General Availability Release

The latest production release of Struts 1 is Struts 1.3.10, which was promoted to "General Availability" (or "Ready for Primetime") on 04 Dec 2008.
HIBERNATE :-
Hibernate ORM 4.1.4 Release
Hibernate ORM version 4.1.4 has just been released. This is a minor bug fix release containing 37 bug fixes.
Download bundles are available from SourceForge in both ZIP and TGZ formats.
Download latest version Hibernate 4.0.1 in Zip format
Download latest version Hibernate 4.0.1 in TGZ format

ORACLE:- 

Oracle Introduces Latest Versions of Oracle User Productivity Kit, User Productivity Kit Professional and Oracle Tutor to Improve Workforce Effectiveness

Oracle User Productivity Kit 3.6.1 Offers Feature-rich Sound Capabilities and Oracle Tutor 12.2 Provides Enhanced User Experience

MYSQL:- 

MySQL 5 is latest version. Please read if your version is older than 4.1

---

The lastest full production release of MySQL is version 5.

Some hosts do not support version 5 yet but most should be supporting version 4.1.

If your version is older than 4.1 please note that in any new threads you start. This is because older versions do not support things like GROUP_CONCAT and subqueries among other things.

If you happen to still be on MySQL 3.x then you won't even have the ability to use UNION.

If you note that you are using an older version, then when someone is composing a solution to help you, they will give you a version that you can use on your particular release of MySQL.
