    We can thanks to CSS, specify the style of the cursor. The attributes are as follows. This will take the value also. Note down this attributes and then apply one by one till you get the appearance. You can do more than basic appearance settings than this. They are nw-resize, crosshair, n-resize, default, se-resize, point, sw-resize, move, s-resize, e-resize, w-resize, ne-resize, text, help, wait, inherit, etc.

    You can use this properties to give out a layout. This works different as per the browser. The samples are position: absolute, float: left or right, display: inline-block, zoom: 1 preferably, width: initial value except auto, height: unless the initial value Car, etc. Now In Internet Explorer 7, max-width and min-width, min-height and max-height, overflow: unless the initial value Car, overflow-x: unless the initial value Car, overflow-y: the initial value except auto, etc.

    Hackers can sometimes succeed in stealing the contents of a database. User names and passwords of all users when they are available. Passwords must be stored hashes in the database. Thus, if stolen base, the attacker has no access to passwords. These should be coded with the algorithm SHA 256 because the MD5 has been cracked, making it less effective. When the user enters his password, is encrypted and Verification with the two coded versions: that of the database and the seizure. In this way, the administrator of the database did not have access to passwords in clear text.

    The attacker will seek to recover passwords by sniffing unencrypted network. In fact, they retrieve the data passing between client and server because the passwords are encrypted on the server side. To avoid this problem, it is possible through JavaScript to encode passwords on the client side. The password field is cleared through JavaScript, therefore, in the application, only the password encrypt in transit. The advantage is that if a hacker gets the data traveling between client and server, it retrieves an encrypted password and can not use it. The problem is that JavaScript can be disabled by the user. Therefore, the server side, provide two types of audits Password: those in clear and encrypted.
