How to reset the MySQL root password
I just happened to lock myself out of MySQL, but luckily I have root access to the server so I can reset it easily by first shutting down MySQL:
1 /etc/init.d/mysql stop
And then creating a MySQL init file with the desired password:
1 $ echo "SET PASSWORD FOR 'root'@'localhost' = PASSWORD('1234');" >> /tmp/mysql_init.txt
Starting MySQL with the —init-file parameter like this resets the password:
1 $ mysqld_safe --init-file=/tmp/mysql_init.txt
Remember to delete the file:
1 rm /tmp/mysql_init.txt

These CSS rules remove most, if not all, browser specific styles from common HTML elements. Your page will look almost identical in all browser when using these CSS rules. Note that this is a combination of Tantek Celik’s undohtml.css and YUI ’s reset.css.
