Using PHP to generate a Christmas Tree

This uses just php to generate a Christmas tree.  It was just a simple exercise that I decided to keep.  It still needs some notation yet.  

 
Horizontally and Vertically center an image

Occasionally it is good to know how to horizontally and vertically center an image.  This way is for centering a background image.  

 
Tweaks –– XP

  • Added a tip for using larger icons in the quick launch toolbar.
  • Added instructions for utilizing a new sound card.  A common symptom of using a new sound card is no sound whatsoever even when it is operating correctly.  This is addressed in these instructions.
  • Added instructions for installing East Asian languages.
  • Increase Windows XP text size.

Also added one last tip for connecting to the internet using a wireless usb while avoiding the installation of the unnecessary software.  This last one is mostly for my own benefit and was tricky to figure out.  

 
PHP –– permutations

A tiny example script that calculates permutations.  

 
memo blog

Memo

to read later ref.

Hardly worth mentioning, but for record keeping purposes I altered the text for the date when viewing main page posts and individual memo blog posts to say Date Posted as opposed to Date Reviewed.

Updated the memo blog archives page to display the date and time it was written and hyperlinked the partial summaries.

Site updates performed during the month of April through the middle of May 2012:

  • bug fix: news archive results are now sorted by date as opposed to nothing.
  • bug fix: css for the admin page was cleaned up. Previously the css was broken to look right.
  • new feature: In the admin settings the a preview of the default images for the main page blogs are displayed.
  • bug fix: all categories now have non-breaking spaces replaced with spaces and empty values are removed prior to storage in the database.

No real news, but new articles are still being created or significantly updated at the usual rate of about two per month.
