I want to ask how to upload file to some hosting server ( for example mediafire )?? I know that I must use something called POST/GET, but I don't know relly how to use them :/
I programming in Java,C++,C#,PHP so if you want write some small piece of code in these languages.
Look up "HTTP POST request" in the documentation of your relevant language.

I know that someone mean will probably close this question for being opinion, but the truth is, I'm not after opinion as such, but actual facts about the correct way and how to do this.
I've been searching around for quite a time and I'm still unclear as to what direction to take. It seems there are a billion* libraries that I could use, but I want to know what would be the correct, proper supported method of achieving this.
Essentially, I have a very simple requirement to list and download files from Sites on our Office 365 subscription to an iOS application.
Initially, I looked at the REST interface for Sharepoint and, from a browser, was able to easily perform a GET to our site and receive and receie a response with meta data about the file, for example:
https://mytenantid.sharepoint.com/_api/web/getfilebyserverrelativeurl('/MyFile/Here/Document.txt')
I could also retrieve JSON output instead of XML by specifying an Accept header of application/json using the POSTMAN REST client for Chrome.
So far, so easy. Just the authentication to do outside of the browser and that's it.
Phew!!
I started by looking at Basic authentication, but wasn't sure if this is the right way to do it and even if it would work?
On looking further, it seems that actually, using OAuth might be the way to go. Apparently, you can either do this yourself (no idea how), or use a library (ADAL?) from Microsoft? Unfortunately, this all looks half baked will very little documentation that seems to work. It also requires the use of CocoaPods and workspaces and isn't just a simple library that I can copy to my project and start using (a la SwiftyJSON). There also seems to be a lot of other libraries around too.
I should mention that I'm using Swift, so I've tried converting code from Objective C to Swift (unsuccessfully) too. Apparently I can't use "readWithCallback" with an argument list that the code tells me I should actually use -- even a sample application I downloaded had the same issue.
I've also tried using node.js with a script (not a Web Application) and the documentation and number of libraries available for that is almost worse.
Any assistance to achieve this really simple capability would be hugely appreciated -- it's been driving me nuts.
Many thanks,
D.
*this might be a slight exaggeration.
Office 365 has a RESTful API that you can use any programming language to authentication and integrate in your app.
Here is a simple example for iOS connected app to office 365. The sample shows how to do this in Objective C and SWIFT.

I have seen on varias different websites that when a forum post or something like that is doing they all have different URLs that make it look like they are in different directories, but I am sure they cannot make different directories for each post.
If you look at this website: https://oc.tc/forums/topics/5181a374ba6087261f000c59
The number at the end (5181a374ba6087261f000c59) changes for each post and it looks liek this is a different directory but I am sure it is not!
Could you please explain how they do this?
Thanks in advance!

Use apache .htaccess file to handle redirect to your php script
What they're doing there is providing the 518.... as a query string parameter. Their site interprets the request as http://oc.tc/forums/topics/{post}. It would be the same as doing something like http://oc.tc/forums/topics?post=5181a374ba6087261f000c59 (this is an example to show the idea).
Those sites use a technique called URL rewiring at Apache.
What they do is that they convert URL requests like this:
http://site.com/products/categoryA/myawesomeproduct
To something internal like:
http://site.com/?query=products/categoryA/myawesomeproduct
Then the process the rest in PHP. You can learn how to it with examples on the following link: http://roshanbh.com.np/2008/03/url-rewriting-examples-htaccess.html
Edit:
A full guide to redirects here: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/misc/rewriteguide.html
I've been doing some programming off and on for my brother, who is a stock trader. I'm wondering if it is possible to receive a push notification when a site server adds a page. For example, the site smallcapfortunes.com frequently adds pages that are simple extensions off the main URL. For example, the site regularly adds pages under URLs such as /neca/, /stev/, etc.
Are there existing methods to execute this? Or is this something I need to write myself? Has anyone here written anything like that?
I know there are existing sites to track basic updates to a single page. In my research, though, I haven't found anything like this.
Please let me know if there are any other details I need to provide.
Generally you can only get a push notification if a specific website offers that service.
Some websites publish a structured (XML) site map. If the one you're interested in does that, you could pull that sitemap on a regular basis and look for differences.
you're most likely going to want to use http://scrapy.org/ to go through the site and find new /neca/ and /stev/ urls, etc, then just trigger the script every so often.
i have a website, its to exchange links, files... to say it quickly it's my 'version' of twitter+megaupload,
Well, users add links all the time and so on, but i would like user be able to syinch his bookmarks from the browser to the ones he has at his profile of mywebsite,
Where should i look into?
Basically i need to be able to:
- Acces bookmarks file (1)
- being able to send the urls to my service ( 2 )
- maybe adding the login feature (in the future)
I was google'ing about this for ages few weeks a go and i kind of give up, because i'm ok with PHP and JS, but with this plugin languages i'm very lost. So i decided posting here, wich always brings positive answers
(1) - > I don't even know where to start
(2) -> i was thinking to have a website.com/auto_import_no_confirm.php?url=[URL] and put it in a for each.
how many different languages and extension files do i have to work with? I really need any kind of tip with point (1)
feel like?
-edit-
Just found This -> https://developer.mozilla.org/En/Code_snippets/Bookmarks
wich really looks like i need, but where do i place this code?
thanks!
Might not be a bad question, but there are too many subtopics raised to answer that. (And there is too much tagspam as well. Break up your question into PHP- and Javascript-specific tasks, when you have devised the general application scheme.)
But to get started, download similar Firefox extensions (.xpi) and unzip them to inspect the general structure. You'll find examplary code for bookmark handling and invoking remote APIs pretty quickly. And basically you only need Javascript for the extension itself. (It sounds like your extension does not need much UI.)
And there are many tutorials on designing Firefox addons: http://roachfiend.com/archives/2004/12/08/how-to-create-firefox-extensions/ or http://www.google.com/search?q=firefox+develop+an+xpi
The good news first, you won't need much more than javascript if you just want to access bookmarks and send them to a server, neither on firefox nor on chrome.
But still you'll have to make yourself familiar with the apis of the browsers and learn how to develop extensions.
However, both Mozilla and Google provide all necessary information on their developer sites.
For Chrome, this is a good place to start, you'll find the api for bookmark access here.
The Corresponding site for Firefox can be found here, with information on bookmark access here.
I've looked around but wasn't able to find what I was looking for. I'm looking for a way to automatically create short URLs displayed in the browser, not using a URL shortener. Basically I would like to re-create something like this:
idzr.org/1ptb
I upload screenshots to my server with "GrabUp" on a regular basis but it creates rather long URLs for example:
/2523e3c90d60f08e952215424e7c5d99.png
It's a bit annoying having to shorten them each time.
I have seen this method a lot lately with pretty much any file including html files. If this has been discussed already I'm sorry I'm posting it again. I just seem to be stuck.
Thanks in advance for any help & advice!
I don't know, what webserver do you use.
You write rule for rewrite
-- htaccess for Apache or equivalent for IIS
You push content to user thru your code, because browser doesn't know what content get from web server
-- use http header - MIME type
