Chip Chapin put together a PHP Cookie Test test last fall. I’d imagine these would be pretty useful for troubleshooting cookie stuff.
Blogged to death but it must go up since it’s such a great photo. Here’s a less successeful photo of the same event.
Hmm, I’m beginning to believe that one can’t subsist primarily on yogurt (with fruit on the bottom!) and pudding (mmm, oreo flavored).
Hmm, perhaps this might be useful for non-autistics as well?
Click to edit me if you’re in IE5+. — Inspired by the K5 additions and impending deadlines, I’ve whipped up a little real-time editing / innerHTML test.
It’s literally two lines of code, one to make the text editable and one to grab the value (and presumably post it through an iframe).
Of course, Mozilla barely has a working textarea, so we’re not even going to talk about ranging or inline editing ability there. > Earlier post on same subject.
Was thinking a bit more about dynamic thread loading, and it seems to me that for a site like K5, it should be the preferred display method and the default if the browser supports it.
- Minimizes transmission; only transfers what’s requested, when it’s requested w/o extra page wrapping data
- Gives the additional information on reader interest that threaded mode does (extra posts are requested) without the annoying page refresh. Can be used to more accurate collaborative filtering, still more efficient than sending all posts nested or flat
- Virtually insures focus for inline loading of alerts and ads. This obviously could be used for good or evil.
Some other improvements on dynamic loading could be inserting inline loading algorithms to do preload based on hover/focus activity (or in K5’s case, the inevitable ‘dynamic’ moderation)
(can be expanded w/ inline loading algorithms based on focus, etc.).
Got up to rotate some fluids and noticed that driph had sent me a message to check out the new dynamic mode on kuro5hin. Being the jaded kinda guy I am, I half expect it to be just some cheezy div-hiding coding or something, but it is in fact really doing DOM-based (well, if innerHTML isn’t supported) dynamic imports of nodes (wiring actions through an iframe), which is very nifty (code). We need more cool stuff like this to convince people that JavaScript in fact isn’t a bad thing (speaking of which, I thought rusty hated JS. Who kept him tied down while this happened?).
Obvious improvements of course would be allowing dynamic expansion by thread. Also, there’s probably no reason to remove the node on closing instead of hiding except for the way the placeholders are right now. Still it’s pretty cool that this DHTML widget is up, and being seen and used by real people. Of course I thought the stuff on IHT and Netflix would’ve caught on once people started seeing that, but that didn’t really happen.
Hmm, ok, going back to sleep. I was doing ok until this afternoon when I got sorta dizzy and nauseous and realized I my jaw ached and was swollen and all I really wanted to do was lie down some.
Business 2.0 Live! Transcript: Is the Information Revolution Dead? Part I: W. Brian Arthur, Andy Grove, and Lawrence Lessig speak at Business 2.0 Live! event in San Jose. Related: Hollywood vs. High-Tech: Disney’s Michael Eisner and others say Hollywood will defend its intellectual property at all costs. Silicon Valley eminences like Andy Grove say those are fightin’ words — if it means trampling consumers’ rights and squashing innovation.
What we need to be able to do is to start taking control of the language of this debate. Let’s start talking about the Dirty Money Copyright Act, the Senator From Disney, and how Michael Eisner has profited from “piracy”.
I’ve never ever used optgroup before, but that’s a neat little tag there, although, one wishes that say, nested select boxes, combo boxes, sliders, spin boxes could have been built in to the HTML spec already (or years ago).
