[Phpwiki-talk] Themes and Rendering

[(YOD) <yo...@pn...>]

I'm using 1.3.7 and have two Wiki sites. On one I'm using MacOSX and on 
the other the theme is Hawaiian. Everything renders find in Foxfire but 
when using IE the scrolling is very slow and I think it is because of the 
background image. Is there anyway to get around this short of changing the 
image?? Anyone have this problem also? Of course my preference is Foxfire 
but not everyone who uses the Wiki sites use Foxfire so I want the pages 
to render well in both.

[Phpwiki-talk] Global_Data

[(YOD) <yo...@pn...>]

What is global_data? I was cleaning up my database and accidentally 
deleted this. It was the first item in the base and I didn't recognize it. 
Another Wiki I have also has global_data (and I did not remove it (g)).. 
Should that be something I should be concerned about?

When I clean the DB of superfluous items which are not really pages in the 
Wiki it seems to speed up retrieval. That and closing any htppd processes 
which increase load will make the Wiki seem or appear to fly.

global_data is the one and only special page PhpWiki keeps around to 
store/restore its system-wide, not page-specific state.
It should not be deleted, but it causes no critical errors if you 
already did.
It could be any other pagename also. (See lib/WikiDB.php:538)
PhpWiki uses the special metatag "__global" in global_data for its 
special data.
Every WikiDB::get() - WikiDB::set() call uses this area.
Currently we use it for non-critical values,
the DB _timestamp, plus some global stats.

See http://mywiki/global_data?action=DebugInfo
or http://mywiki/global_data?action=EditMetaData

I doubt that the pages you deleted which are just id's of links affect 
system performance. But closing stale httpd and mysql processes may 
drastically increase performance.

Reini: I tried to reinsert global_data and this is what I got:

Error

SQL-query : 

UPDATE `page` SET `pagename` = 'global_data',
`pagedata` = 
'a:1:{s:8:"__global";a:1:{s:10:"_timestamp";a:2:{i:0;i:1112395452;i:1;i:98;}}}' 
WHERE `id` = '2892' LIMIT 1 ;
