how to enable https in drupal

Just a note for myself, but maybe will help somebody too.:-)

To enable HTTPS in Drupal:

Go to ’site building’ -> secure pages:

  • enable secure pages;
  • set up rules;
  • don’t forget to add rules for css and javascripts, otherwise you will get notices in browsers saying that some content is not secured.

What should come with img tag

I often work with 3rd party code and I’m often confused by so much html code. SEO professionals know that text/code ratio is very important so you should save every byte of code when it’s possible. Today I want to focus on image tag and the ways people use it in a bad (or just not good) way.

<img src="file.jpg" alt="" />

simple usability - ask for confirmation

I often get confused if an accidental click on some link removes some data I need on a particular resource. I do not understand why the site webmaster is not able to add just one line that might allow to avoid many bad situations when some data is lost irretrievably.
