The development there picked up and turned out pretty nice. What help is needed for integration into phpslash? I've been using the remote calls to phpAdsNew because of some of it's limitations in it's native php function method. The stats shown in the admin area is phpOpenTracker presented in an url block. I got frustrated because sf.net doesn't provide raw apache logs. What I really would like is soemthing like this that converts to apache style logs so I can run a stats program like Summary. phpOpenTracker has a very nice API that phpslash could tie into, but it doesn't have many reports out of the box. If anyone can suggest any other stats program that will slurp up the information I'd like to check it out.

I think the mailing list does need this merged in as well as the ability to be a front end to a real mlm such as mailman. It also needs to have some changes to the functions to return their output rather than display. This will make scripting and automating the mailing list much easier. 0.65 was mainly being cleaned up so this has been put off. If someone wants to pick it up, feel free.

Cigarettes are evil. Pepsi, with all of its sugar and caffiene is evil. Goth/industrial and Metal are evil. but do you REALLY want to deny me of these things *Points to the pics illistrating the 7'1" 320lb bald guy* Some people PREFER HTML mail..for example, I prefer Lockergnome in HTML format.. normally I ABHOR HTML mail..

I would think that Pepsi's evil would come from their extensive usgae of Britney Spears.

This is also dimetrically opposed to the idea of rewriting the mailing list class to play nicer with real mailing list servers, who typically drop HTML attachments, or refuse non text/plain message bodies. I really hate HTML email and would hate to be another enabler of a bad idea twisted by Microsoft to look good. -n |

I also do ISP tech support, I deal with Nimbda, Happy99, Kak.worm and Sircam daily. I know the evils of html mail all too well. BetaMax tapes are far superior in almost every way to VHS. Unfortunatly, the people (Hereafter refered to as the herd) prefered the marketing on VHS and good luck getting Jay and Silent Bob on beta (It comes out this week BTW). No one says you have to like it, or even use it. Just support it. The idea was to give users a choice between HTML and plain text.. My mom, for example prefers html. Trust me, you do NOT want to argue with my mom. You may like NS due to its stable nature, and abhor IE due to its unstable, security hole ridden nature. This may be, and bully for you, but at the same time, you wouldn't make a page only viewable in NS. I mean it is almost apples and oranges, but it is something that people have asked for. Oh well. I'm just happy with all the other new features right now, I'll bring this up again when 7 gets a tad closer ;-) Matt "TrollBoy" Wiseman Webmaster: Shoggoth.net Site Designer: phpslash.org The oldest and strongest emotion of mankind is fear, and the oldest and strongest kind of fear is fear of the unknown. -H.P.

Trust me, you do NOT want to argue with my mom. I had Beta for a long time.. stoped renting things with the switch to VHS, happy now that I have a DVD player. Still prefer 35mm. > > You may like NS due to its stable nature, and abhor IE due to its unstable, > security hole ridden nature.

I use a mac at work and ie's evilness is much less on the mac. slow to render large pages though.. HTML will be migrated in, I don't think that I can stop theat, but yes.. 0.7 is a much more likely timeframe, the email bits need to be completely rewriteen becasue they're crap built on crap adn 0.7's user accoutn will add a lot of abilities (hopefully) that the email portions will want to take advantage of. That said, there's nothing stoipping you from changin the current mail templates to be html, but you can't have both with a switch without a little work. Of all the features in phpslash the emailed headlines is probbaly very low on the priority list. Ug.. I am bleeding again. Pesky Leatherman. -n ------ nathan hruby na...@ds... ------ |
