没想到啊，连微软也加入了openId的行列了。

看来openId对现在的网络的影响太大了，只是它由谁来管理呢？做为一个商业网站，是没有人会愿意使用OPENID的，但是对于社交化网络，OPENID就显得有点必要了，毕竟没有谁会愿意到处注册userid这类的，谁知道几年后还记不记得自己所设的密码？我的密码找回问题又是什么？

Windows Live ID Commits to Support OpenID

Beginning today, Windows Live ID is publicly committing to support the OpenID digital identity framework with the announcement of the public availability of a Community Technology Preview (CTP) of the Windows Live ID OpenID Provider.

You will soon be able to use your Windows Live ID account to sign in to any OpenID Web site!

The Windows Live ID OpenID Provider (OP) enables anyone with a Windows Live ID account to set up an OpenID alias and to use that alias for identification at an increasing number of OpenID 2.0 relying party sites-for example: Plaxo, Pibb, StackOverflow.com and Wikispaces.

What is OpenID?

The official answer from the OpenID Foundation (the guardians of the OpenID specs) is that "OpenID is a free and easy way to use a single digital identity across the Internet." (Source: http://openid.net/)

OpenID is an emerging, de facto standard Web protocol for user authentication. It helps eliminate the need for multiple user names across different Web sites, thereby simplifying a user's online experience. Stated another way, you can reuse your OpenID account at different Web sites without having to create a new user name and password at each site you use.

More information about OpenID is available at http://openid.net.

Windows Live ID OpenID Provider - October 2008 (CTP)

The initial release is a Community Technology Preview (CTP) Release in the Windows Live ID Integration (INT) environment. It is intended primarily for relying-party Web sites and developers of relying-party client libraries, to enable them to test the interoperability of their implementations against the Windows Live ID OP endpoint and flush out any bugs or incompatibilities.

Note that the Windows Live ID OP supports only the OpenID 2.0 protocol.

The Windows Live ID INT environment is separate from the main Production environment, and is for testing purposes only. If you have not already created a Windows Live ID user account for testing in INT, you can do so at http://login.live-int.com/.

After you have your Windows Live ID account in INT, go to https://login.live-int.com/beta/ManageOpenID.srf to set up your OpenID alias on that test account.

NOTE: INT accounts are for testing purposes only and are NOT intended to be permanent user accounts. They do not allow access to Windows Live services in Production.

Windows Live ID OpenID Provider - Future Release Plans

The current Technology Preview release is for testing purposes only, and is not intended for widespread adoption at this stage. After a period of industry testing and feedback, we will be incorporating any necessary fixes and feature enhancements into the next revision, to be released to Production sometime in 2009.

We do NOT recommend that anyone use their INT alias as their permanent OpenID account at this time; users should wait until the final release of the OP to Production.

Open Standards Support

All Windows Live product teams are committed to supporting open standards where such standards are relevant to our work and when they reach a sufficient level of maturity, and the Windows Live ID Team is no exception. We have been tracking the evolution of the OpenID specification, from its birth as just a dream and a vision through its development into a mature, de facto standard with terms that make it viable for us to implement it now.

We look forward to making it easier for our users to access the Web sites they use, by reducing their need to create additional identity accounts. That is the promise of OpenID. We are happy to support that goal by providing OpenID-based sign-in functionality to Windows Live ID account holders.

Try It Now. Tell Us What You Think

We want you to try the Windows Live ID OpenID Provider CTP release, let us know your feedback, and tell us about any problems you find.

To prepare:

1. Go to http://login.live-int.com/ and use the Sign up for an account link to set up a Windows Live ID test account in the INT environment.
2. Go to https://login.live-int.com/beta/ManageOpenID.srf to set up your OpenID test alias.

Then:

• Users - At any Web site that supports OpenID 2.0, type openid.live-INT.com in the OpenID login box to sign in to that site by means of your Windows Live ID OpenID alias.
• Library developers - Test your libraries against the Windows Live ID OP endpoint and let us know of any problems you find.
• Web site owners - Test signing in to your site by using a Windows Live ID OpenID alias and let us know of any problems you find.

You can send us feedback at:

• E-mail - openidfb@microsoft.com

PHP的模版里，smarty一直就是让人又爱又恨的，功能太强大了，以致于美工们看到他也会感觉头疼，毕竟是又要学一门新的语言了。
这么多年，smarty都是在2.x版本里面徘徊，如今，终于要出3了。
以下是官方的change log：

10/6/2008

- completed compilation of {include} tag, variable scoping same as in smarty2

- added compilation of {capture} tag.

- added error message on none existing template files.

10/4/2008
- added comments in the parser definition y file.

- added array of $smarty_token_names to lexer for use in trigger_template_error function

- change handling of none smarty2 style tags like {if}, {for}....

- lexer/parser optimization

10/3/2008

- create different compiled template files depending if caching and/or security is enabled

- cleaned up compiler

- lexer/parser optimization

10/2/2008

- new method trigger fatal error, displays massage and terminates smarty

- compile error status flag added
  The compiler will in case of error continue to parse the template(s) to display all errors. No compiled
  templates will be written, Smarty terminates after the compiler exits.

- added error message to function __call in Smarty.class.php

alipay支持firefox是众所周知的事情了，前两天我还贴出了链接说明alipay现在也开始支持linux下的firefox了。

这是对大家都有利的事情，可惜alipay的这个插件的作者不知道是粗心还是什么，如果象绿色软件那样的安装firefox，那么该插件是不能被使用的。

即：如果你把firefox安装在d盘，然后你重装系统后，再次打开firefox(当然你原先装的插件啥的都没有了。。。fEBE可以备份，只是插件的相关配置是备份不了的)，会认为你是新装firefox的。

如果这个时候，你去支付宝下载支持firefox的控件：npaliedit.exe，在安装的时候会提示你：安装程序并未检测到您的火狐浏览器安装目录，请安装火狐浏览器之后再运行安装程序！点击确定后就退出了。

这个时候怎么办？难道就不能使用了吗？想起了以前的解决方法，立马跑到：http://addons.mozilla.org/zh-CN/上面，搜索alipay，找到一个所谓在“沙盘”中的alipay控件，下载下来进行安装。终于解决了。。。。

由于mozilla需要登录才能下载，于是我把该文件放在了本地，希望可以给想使用的人带来方便。
