What's happening?

  • Followup: RE: Is Distance from Lat,Long returned?

    I would add that distance does seem to be returned, if some of the posts I have read are anything to go by. However, I have not seen it stated in any official documentation.

  • Followup: RE: Is Distance from Lat,Long returned?

    Whether distance is returned or not, it is trivial to calculate outside of the search using trigonometry (actually, more Pythagoras Theorem). That assumes you are dealing with short distances, otherwise you will need to use more complicated formulas to calculate the "great arc" between two points (e.g. the distance from London to New York is not a straight line - it is an arc around...

  • Uploaded media is manipulated too early

    When new media is uploaded, it should only be accessed via the move_uploaded_file() file. The application must assume that it has no direct access to the uploaded file until it has moved it into its own temporary work area. At the moment, the application does all sorts of manipulation of the uploaded file before it is moved - directly in /tmp - or wherever the files get uploaded to. This...

  • The term 'aliasing' is used incorrectly throughout

    'Aliasing' is the effect that makes your lines and curves look jagged. It is all about discrete sampling of continous curves, resulting in lower frequencies punching through (the jaggies). But in short - you really want to avoid aliasing. You actually desire (and provide) anti-aliased charts through an anti-aliasing algorithm.

  • Comment: (ok 2.11.7) HTML in exports getting corrupted

    That fix works in PHP5. I don't know whether it works with earlier versions, or whether it should really be placed before any sessions are started.

  • (ok 2.11.7) HTML in exports getting corrupted

    Summary: If session cookies are not available for any reason, then an export of a database or table, containing HTML with anchors and forms, will get transparent session IDs inserted into it, effectvely corrupting the export. Here are more details and a fix (a copy of an e-mail sent in earlier): --------------- I have found a fix for this problem, and will be posting it to the...

  • Comment: Absolute paths of files exposed

    These absolute URLs are also included in the links of e-mail notifications, sent out when changes are made to files. e.g. the e-mail: The file "Induction Day Presentation.ppt" is uploaded to "/admin/Board Shared/Induction Day 25.07.07" [Open containing folder] The [Open containing folder] link contains a path with the full absolute path in, even though the path listed in the e-mail text...

  • Error adding web plugin for disabled module

    I uninstalled the gallery module, then attempted to add a gallery plugin to a web page. The list of plug-ins still included gallery (it should perhaps have limited the list to installed modules only?). When selecting the gallery plugin in the pop-up box, an SQL error (missing gallery tables) was displayed instead.

  • Absolute paths of files exposed

    I noticed this when sending someone a link to a file for download. The security works well, taking users to the login screen when the file is protected. The problem is that the file download URL contains the full, absolute path as it appears on the server. For example...

  • Comment: Assign event to multiple categories

    It's more than just a cencept - it is a very useful feature, that is built into the iCal standard from the start, but is so very often overlooked in implementations. So many calendar apps are cripled by the lack of multiple categories. MS Outlook is one of the very few clients that correctly supports this (even though it falls down in many other ways).
