PCRE –– examples 2

Added an example that demonstrates recursion where BB Code is converted to HTML Code.  Since this example is on the examples page I do not go into much depth describing the example nor do I claim to understand the regex example entirely.  

 
PHP –– Editor

Version 1.10

Minor CSS upgrade to add color to the DIRECTORY links to make them stand out a little more.  

 
Tweaks –– XP

This is a small page I created a little while back that deals with Windows XP tips.  I am not sure how long I will have XP, but I have had it for some time now and it has served me well.  I recently added a tip for how to turn off the background program searchindexer.exe.  For me search indexer used up a lot of processing resources and turning it off is somewhat tricky.  you can't turn it off by turning off the startup programs or uninstall it easily or even by manually disabling searchindexer.exe itself.  Most of the information on the web regarding how to turn this off is just wrong.  This latest tip will walk you through the steps to disable it.  

 
PCRE –– examples 2

Added an example: "replace pattern found between tags and is not preceded by or followed by a period"

Also expanded: "Replace pattern that is not between anchor tags"

update: 6/19/10: Added another example demonstrating a lookahead and a lookbehind used together and added more explanation to example 1 of "replacing a pattern found between two tags".  All of the PCRE pages have had the links at the end of the page streamlined.

Latest Improvements

Filed under:website — vanderjagt.dc @ 12:56 PM

In my last post I was on site version 4.31.28. As of this post I am on 5.4.7. In this short post I hope to give a brief overview of the changes since my last post.

Early on, after my last post, many of the improvements involved a number of advancements in security. Critical files are now much more difficult to access and logging in at one computer will log me off if I forgot to log off at another computer. There were several other security advancements as well.

The search feature has gone through several recent advancements

  • exact phrases can now be searched
  • terms can be negated
  • some CSS fixes to help the category boxes look nicer
  • category boxes take up less space
  • category boxes are easier to read
  • The biggest improvement is the use of Ajax Pagination which I am quite pleased with.

This also brings this program to a close as there are no other updates planned for it. There was also a big improvement in the MySQL query itself with the use of UNION. This allows me greater control over the queries, both in sorting and limiting results. There were some significant post upgrade fixes, but overall the program is complete.

Added a very useful section “5 most recently updated articles” The Editor has gone through several updates, the script has become plug n’ play friendly, files can be created deleted and renamed. The list of files is now scrollable. I have found that scrollable lists are quite handy. The rest of the updates involve minor bug fixes like hyperlinking urls in articles not working correctly with the dash script or fixing the time on the main page and a lot of the other updates involved bringing the admin pages up to date.

I do not have any other updates or projects planned and hope to simply read a good book or play video games for a while.

Memo

site version 5.17.13

added the ability to use templates for articles.  This was an easy update and should make it easier to rapidly create complex and personalized CSS premade designs.  For example, I have a premade Marvel Character Template that I want to use to create profiles for Marvel Characters that I want to keep tabs on.  Hitting the submit button on the template will create a new file while leaving the template unaltered.  The templates themselves can still be altered in the same way as editing any other file.

On a side note I slightly redesigned the Admin page to use a 3 column style.  This is certainly not part of the site version update version mentioned above.  It's just a personal preference thing.

site version 5.16.13

Fixed another bug that was not tied to the bugs previously fixed, that fixed the news items being sorted by ID rather than by date.

site version 5.16.12

Fixed three bugs dealing with the sorting of memo blog archives, main content archives, and news archives where the files were being sorted by ID rather than by date.  This was most noticeable when hitting the prev and next buttons and occasionally, but not often, getting a strange result.
