Consider form id is 'form_id' and custom class 'class_name'

var dataForm = new VarienForm('form_id', true);
Validation.add('class_name','Alter message',function(the_field_value){

Use script

<script>
(function() {
 var _w = document.createElement("script"); _w.type = "text/javascript"; _w.async = true;
 _w.src = "http://button.wanttt.com/button/script/";
 var s = document.getElementsByTagName("script")[0]; s.parentNode.insertBefore(_w, s);
})();
</script>
<a href="http://wanttt.com/want/initial_popup/"
data-merchant_name="ESCAPED_MERCHANT_NAME"
data-title="ESCAPED_PRODUCT_NAME"
data-price="PRODUCT_PRICE"
data-image_url="HIGH_RESOLUTION_PRODUCT_IMAGE_URL"
data-count="true"
data-style="wb1" data-page_source="PRODUCT" class="wantButton"></a>

or go to http://wantbutton.com/code.html

Use html as
<input type="text" value="password" id="password">

And use script
jQuery( document ).ready( function(){

jQuery( document ).delegate( "#password", "focusin focusout",
function(e){
var elm = jQuery( "#password" )[0];
if( e.type == "focusin" && elm.type == "text" ) {
jQuery( elm ).replaceWith( jQuery( "<input>", {id: "password", type:"password", value:"" } ) );
jQuery( "#password")[0].focus();
}
else if( e.type =="focusout" && elm.type == "password" && !elm.value ) {
jQuery( elm ).replaceWith( jQuery( "<input>", {id: "password", type:"text", value:"password" } ) );
}

}
);
});

Suppose, the configuration file name is domain.com and local IP address is 127.0.0.1. Type following command in terminal
gksudo gedit /etc/apache2/sites-available/domain.com

Add following lines in configuration file
<VirtualHost 127.0.0.1:80>
DocumentRoot /var/www/test
ServerName domain.com
ServerAlias test.domain.com
ServerAdmin admin@domain.com
</VirtualHost>

Save and close it. Then create a symbolic link of this configuration file to /etc/apache2/sites-enabled directory in order to enable it
cd /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/
sudo ln -s ../sites-available/domain.com .

Then, add a virtual domain with a specific local IP to hosts file that is located in /etc/hosts. You can also add the port using a colon with the IP.
sudo nano /etc/hosts
add this line
127.0.0.1 test.domain.com
Save and close it. After all restart the apache service.

Download lazyload js from below link
http://www.appelsiini.net/projects/lazyload
And save in js/lazyload/jquery.lazyload.js

Then create lazyload.phtml in template/lazyload/lazyload.phtml with following code
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">
jQuery("img").load(function(){if(jQuery(this).attr("src")!=="<?php echo Mage::getBaseUrl(Mage_Core_Model_Store::URL_TYPE_MEDIA); ?>blank.png"){jQuery(this).removeAttr("height")}});

jQuery(function() {
jQuery("img").lazyload({
effect : "fadeIn",
});
});
</script>


And add following code in catalog.xml
<reference name="head">
<action method="addJs"><script>jquery.lazyload.min.js"></script></action>
</reference>
<reference name="after_body_start">
<block type="core/template" template="lazyloader/lazyload.phtml" name="lazyloader_init" />
</reference>

Remember that jquery must be included in site.

</reference>
and through php code
echo $this->getLayout()->getBlock('head')->addJs('folder_name/file_name.js');

Remove js through layout file
<reference name="head" as="head">
<action method="removeItem"><type>js</type><name>folder_name/file_name.js</name</action>
</reference>
and though php code
$this->getLayout->getBlock('head')->removeItem('js','folder_name/file_name.js');

</children>
</<demosection>
</children>
</config>
</children>
</system>
</children>
</admin>
</resources>
</acl>
</adminhtml>
</config>

Also we access the value of this filed as
Mage::getStoreConfig('demosection/demogroup/demofield ');

Also we can define the default value of this filed in config.xml
<config>

<demosection>
<demogroup>
<model>demo/test</model>
<demofield>Default Value</demofield>
</demogroup>

This error usually happens in the following scenario. An HTML file contains an inline JavaScript to load remote.js and call a function in remote.js

<script type="text/javascript">
//<![CDATA[
Event.observe(window, 'load', function() {
product_zoom = new Product.Zoom('image', 'track', 'handle', 'zoom_in', 'zoom_out', 'track_hint');
});
//]]>
</script>

And in the file remote.js:
remoteFunction code.....


You would expect the output in this order:

Before loading remote.js
After loading remote.js
In remote function

IE gives an error message "Object Expected" because it calls the function remoteFunction() prematurely. It calls before loading the file remote.js, which contain the declaration of remoteFunction(). This is another unexpected behavior from IE. Fortunately, it can be corrected by adding the attribute defer="defer" to second script invocation. This will specifically prevent IE from executing in order to give a correct output. Other browsers are not affected by the change.

Rewrite the tag/tag model and override the getTaggedProductsUrl() with the following code
public function getTaggedProductsUrl()
{
$fullTargetPath = Mage::getUrl('tag/product/list', array(
'tagId' => $this->getTagId(),
'_nosid' => true
));
$targetPath = substr($fullTargetPath, strlen(Mage::getBaseUrl()));
$rewriteUrl = Mage::getModel('core/url_rewrite')->loadByIdPath($targetPath);
if ($rewriteUrl->getId()) {
return $rewriteUrl->getRequestPath();
}
return $fullTargetPath;
}

Global: This refers to the entire installation.
Website: Websites are ‘parents’ of stores. A website consists of one or more stores. Websites can be set up to share customer data, or not to share any data
Store (or store view group): Stores are ‘children’ of websites. Products and Categories are managed on the store level. A root category is configured for each store view group, allowing multiple stores under the same website to have totally different catalog structures.
Store View: A store needs one or more store views to be browse-able in the front-end. The catalog structure per store view will always be the same, it simply allows for multiple presentations of the data in the front. 90% of implementations will likely use store views to allow customers to switch between 2 or more languages.

Remember that grid is working fine.Here module is consider as Bd_Collegeprogram

First add the code in the _prepareColumns() function
$this->addColumn("image", array(
"header" => Mage::helper("collegeprogram")->__("Image"),
"index" => "image",
'type' => 'image',
'width' => '50px',
'renderer' => 'collegeprogram/adminhtml_collegeprogram_renderer_image'
));
Now create a block as adminhtml_collegeprogram_renderer_image
class Bd_Collegeprogram_Block_Adminhtml_collegeprogram_Renderer_Image extends Mage_Adminhtml_Block_Widget_Grid_Column_Renderer_Abstract{

public function render(Varien_Object $row)
{
$html = '<img ';
$html .= 'id="' . $this->getColumn()->getId() . '" ';
$html .= 'src="' . $row->getData($this->getColumn()->getIndex()) . '"';
$html .= 'class="grid-image ' . $this->getColumn()->getInlineCss() . '"/>';

To replace the logo image, upload the new logo image into the images directory and rename the file as logo_email.gif, overwriting the existing image. Also, and very importantly, to ensure that the new image will show up in the transactional emails, the permissions need to be changed so that it includes read and write permissions.

Setting up Terms and Conditions for your Magento store is a two-step process:

Step 1: Enable Terms and Conditions in your store's checkout process

From the Admin panel, select System > Configuration.
From the Configuration panel on the left, under Sales, select the Checkout tab.
If necessary, click to expand the Checkout Options section. Terms and Conditions Checkout Options
Make sure that Enable Onepage Checkout is set to Yes.

To display a checkbox that describes your store's terms and conditions during checkout, set Enable Terms and Conditions to Yes.
Click the Save Config button.



Step 2: Create a Terms and Conditions checkbox

From the Admin panel, select Sales > Terms and Conditions.
To add new terms and conditions, click the Add New button.
Complete the following information:
Enter a Condition Name for this condition.
To make your Terms and Conditions checkbox appear during customer checkout, set Status to Enabled.
Select whether you want your Terms and Conditions Document to appear as Text or HTML. If you want to use bold or underline or other formatting in the document, you can use HTML tags to achieve that formatting. To use HTML tags, set Show Content as to HTML.
Identify the Store View where the Terms and Conditions will appear.
Enter the Checkbox Text that you want to appear with the checkbox. For example, you could use "I understand and accept these terms and conditions" or "Accept" or whatever specific terms and conditions you want your customers to acknowledge.
In the Content field, enter text to describe the terms and conditions of the sale.
Optional: You can set Content Height (css) in pixels to determine the height of the text box that contains the terms and conditions content. For example, if you want the text box to be one inch high, enter the equivalent value in pixels.
Click the Save Condition button.

You have to open magento/lib/Zend/Cache/Backend/File.php
Change:

protected $_options = array(
'cache_dir' => 'null',
to
protected $_options = array(
'cache_dir' => 'tmp/',

Upload the changed File.php and create a folder, called “tmp”
The folder must be writable, so give it ‘777’

This is because of the PHP Memory Limit.
Here is how to fix.
Goto your website root from FTP.
You will see a file called php.ini.sample
Rename it to php.ini
Edit that file and Copy/Paste this code at last,
extension=pdo.so
extension=pdo_mysql.so
extension=pdo_sqlite.so

First crate a file in root folder named: ip.php, and copy/paste following code or download from http://ipinfodb.com/index.php


<?php
final class ip2location_lite{
protected $errors = array();
protected $service = 'api.ipinfodb.com';
protected $version = 'v3';
protected $apiKey = 'efd67dca864cbe8b45fb21b7d19916bf471afd1bfcfe0b3e975d1f238d6c7ed3';

public function __construct(){}

public function __destruct(){}

public function setKey($key){
if(!empty($key)) $this->apiKey = $key;
}

public function getError(){
return implode("\n", $this->errors);
}

public function getCountry($host){
return $this->getResult($host, 'ip-country');
}

public function getCity($host){
return $this->getResult($host, 'ip-city');
}

private function getResult($host, $name){
$ip = @gethostbyname($host);

if(preg_match('/^(?:25[0-5]|2[0-4]\d|1\d\d|[1-9]\d|\d)(?:[.](?:25[0-5]|2[0-4]\d|1\d\d|[1-9]\d|\d)){3}$/', $ip)){
$xml = @file_get_contents('http://' . $this->service . '/' . $this->version . '/' . $name . '/?key=' . $this->apiKey . '&ip=' . $ip . '&format=xml');
