Re: [Fofredux-devel] error on install

[Evan R. <eva...@gm...>]

yep, fix works for me.  it's about time that i upgrade xampp on my
machine...

but it was good to get this one fixed, since 5.1.1 was stuck in a xampp
release for a long time, so it could have caused a bunch of problems for
users.

i'm going to take a stab at doing a pda viewer then...

here's my plan...even if this stuff only pans out for my own personal use
(and i'm not giving any time estimate, since i'm stuck developing 50+ hrs a
week at work)...
1 item viewed at a time...with a few commands on the bottom:
Mark Read & Next
Skip to Next
Skip to First

i'll do an async fetch for the next item, so the "mark read & next" would
actually replace the contents of a <p> and send a hit a web service to mark
the item read, while prefetching the next item.  I think this should reduce
the amount of wait for the reader, and allow us to send only the necessary
data down to the device (the feed item)
my only hurdle will probably be windows mobile 5.0's version of IE's
handling of the ajax stuff.  even though all the sdk's at msdn claim that it
should work.


what's the status on ajax libs?  i see we have prototype in the tree, but
are we using it yet?  i may throw yahoo in there for my purposes, since i
know it very very well, and don't want to waste energy learning something
new.  although, prototype could be attractive if it's simple to do the async
calls, since it's probably much lighter weight than the yahoo libs,
especially when we don't need the ui extras yet.
