Small HTTP servers for Windows

Some mini size HTTP server software for Windows: QuickPHP Abyss nginx For nginx, if you want to add an alias which point to another location which is not under the root directory, you can put the following in the nginx.conf: location /web {     alias   d:/Code/nginx_web; }          This means for locations http://yourhost/web , it is pointing to d:\Code\nginx_web actually. So what about ProxyPass in nginx? I will try on it tomorrow. Keep update soon.

CSS DropShadown in IE9

Reference  http://www.useragentman.com/blog/2011/04/14/css3-text-shadow-can-it-be-done-in-ie-without-javascript/ A good way to perform text shadow in IE9: background-color: 'white' ; filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Chroma(Color= 'white' )         progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.DropShadow(OffX=3, OffY=3, Color='white'); The point is to make use of Chroma filter and set a proper background-color. So great!
