Codeman38 has come up with a few updates and fixes for my comment preview hack for WordPress 1.2 Mingus. Download the php file from here: http://www.zone38.net/blog/wp-comment-review.phps I’ve made some of the changes that mikelu suggests above, fixed the problems where slashes weren’t stripped from usernames/URLs, made it so that the comment is ‘texturized’ (smart quotes, etc.) during preview, and fixed a couple of the layout issues. My hack of the source code is available through my name link on this post.

This is something new (to me). The script generating this error comes from the SprintPCS servers. <!– — Unfortunately, Microsoft has added a clever new — “feature” to Internet Explorer. If the text in — an error’s message is “too small”, specifically — less than 512 bytes, Internet Explorer returns — its own error message. Yes, you can turn that — off, but *surprise* it’s pretty tricky to find — buried as a switch called “smart error — messages” That means, of course, that many of — Resin’s error messages are censored by default. — And, of course, you’ll be shocked to learn that — IIS always returns error messages that are long — enough to make Internet Explorer happy. The — workaround is pretty simple: pad the error — message with a big comment to push it over the — five hundred and twelve byte minimum. Of course, — […]

Amputator: an ampersand-encoding plugin for Movable Type: For future possible plugin development for WP. I would like to work with Robinson’s “Sustaining Validation” idea and make it work (somewhat) for WordPress. Edit: Looks like this is already built into WordPress (since the 0.7 days)

Cool Scripts, WordPress Hack

A new version of the backup scripts for WordPress 1.2 Mingus is now available. This has been tested with 1.2 Mingus and the instructions have been updated along with some of the code. Some of the new and original features are: One click backup of the WordPress MySql database which can be then downloaded from your browser without the use of any FTP client. One click backup of all the files inside your WordPress folder which can then be downloaded from your browser. Date coded backup named for sql files and zipped WordPress files. Better checking of user level. This menu is only available to users with level 10 (or admin) and every backup/restore script has user checking built in to prevent un authorized usage of this tool. One click restore of database (if you have a Linux server) More streamlined SQL creation resulting in faster backups and cleaner dumps. […]

XHTML Tips and Tricks

No
responses

In keeping with my previous post about promoting better programming/coding/markup/style practices among present developers and designers, I have decided to add a couple of categories to this blog and promise to add a few articles every week to those categories. XHTML syntax, better semantics, (common) validation issues and fixes for them, better explanation of validation errors are fair game. I invite my readers to contribute to this process as well and would appreciate a small post if and when you solve a complicated (or simple) validation issue for yourself. On a similar note, I am still looking for more authors for this blog. WordPress people are, as always, more than welcome, but my focus is on getting some authors for other blog tools such as Drupal, MT, Bloxsom etc. If you would like to write (and conversely get exposure for your site/blog/tool) a couple of articles a month for weblogtoolscollection.com, […]
