Clicked link.
Opened a popup for me...
Using Firefox 17 (Aurora).

Also, I clicked the (more) link here and nothing happened. Firebug did not show a data-eve on it. Or onclick. Or whatever.

There's also a problem with the URL for the admin icon, but I haven't looked into it yet.
Yeah my to-do list isn't public, but I posted some of it a few months ago... ;)
Maybe I should clean it up and post the entirety of it. Plenty of ideas for people to exploit!

Yes, but then at the end of Angels, it kinda overlaps with the 'letter at the end of the book' thingy...
So, Amy contacts the Doctor through a book she publishes for everyone to see. Rory contacts his father through a letter. Couldn't they just both send a letter to his father and ask him to tell the Doctor next time he'll visit...? (Because he's going to visit to tell him Rory won't come back, won't he...?)

rev 1740
(3 files -1, 2kb)
! Fixed the Like popup header. (Like.php)
* Considering that I started with a more complex arrow for the Wuthering linktree, and then reduced it to a simpler form, I just remembered that I really didn't need an image file for it... So, replacing it with one of my usual favorites, the border-color hack. (tria.gif, Wuthering/extra.css)
* Harmonazi. (extra.rtl.css)

rev 1739
(7 files +1, 7kb)
+ Added a $radius CSS variable to help change the overall page's border radius more easily. (common.css, index.css, Wuthering/extra.css)
* Warm layout was off by a couple of pixels in old IEs due to a lack of cellspacing param. (index.template.php, Warm/skin.xml)
* Several tweaks to Wuthering to make it cooler... In my opinion at least. What do I know. (Wuthering/extra.css, Wuthering/extra.ie[-9].css)
+ Added a funny styling for Wuthering linktrees. I don't know if you'll like it. I may even remove it in the future. But I worked on it for a day, tweaking it bit by bit, so at least it deserves even a temporary commit... (Wuthering/extra.css, images/theme/tria.gif)
- Debug code. (Wine/skin.xml)
@ Note: the extra linktree code adds less than 200 bytes to a gzipped css file... I think it's acceptable.

Problem is -- should it have been shown at the end of The Power of Three, or the last episode...?

rev 1738
(8 files, 9kb)
+ Added wetem::move() method, which allows you to move a template block from one place to another. It had the usual target parameters: select a layer or block, and select a position relative to it (basically: add (equivalent of 'last'), first, before and after.) (Subs-Template.php)
+ Added <move> command to skin.xml files, where you can invoke the wetem::move with this setting: <move block="block_name" to="target_layer_or_block" where="after" />. You can use the params in any order you want, I should probably rewrite my other mini-parsers to do the same because it's more flexible... No? Regarding Load.php, I'm not too happy I had to postpone the move() call to it, but right now it's the only way it can be done. Maybe later if I rewrite the entire wetem object to manipulate the skeleton string instead of the skeleton array, it can be done nicely... (Load.php, Subs-Cache.php)
* Wine will now show the linktree above and below the sidebar, rather than next to it. Yes, that's the reason I wrote the above method... (Wine/skin.xml)
! Tons of little fixes/tweaks to the main CSS, such as the padding button on IE6/7 buttons, .bbc_img needing a max-width of 100% rather than 650px, and padding tweaks. (index.css)
* Also several tweaks to Wine, most notably in responsive mode, and linktree paddings. (Wine/extra.css)
! And another responsive fix for Warm this time... (Warm/extra.css)
! Fixed menu alignment, linktree styling and responsive sidebar styling in Wuthering. (Wuthering/extra.css)
@ Known issue: recent changes to the skin system have been bad for IE... Even IE9 doesn't like the new Wuthering (hasn't for some time). Responsive modes are pretty broken, too... I'll probably need to go for a negative margin hack for them.
@ Known issue: if you access the 'Current Theme' page in the admin area, if you're not using Weaving it will use a mix between Weaving and your skin... Which is odd. It's only on that page, though. We need to find a solution for this... Anyone, any idea? That's in Themes.php, function SetThemeSettings.

« on October 11th, 2012, 09:32 PM »I dunno.... I didn't like the angels in this episode.
I loved them in Blink.
Just like the baddies in Silence in the Library would probably not be as good without that particular gem of a script...
And the book shouldn't have been written, etc... It's a paradox, after all: it just stops making sense.Quote I had issues with Rory et al turning up in that graveyard though. If the paradox reset by reverting and casting out the cause, then they should have ended up back in the park.
Hmm, recently I watched Looper (which I loved because it was so full of good ideas, and then hated because it became so boring and predictable), and it ends with a paradox as well... But the only way to solve it in a realistic manner is to... (Spoiler in spoiler! Woo!)(click to show/hide) Assume that the kid is the hero (last scene shows that he has a forehead wound and the hero has one too, hasn't he..? Why show that final shot otherwise?), and for some reason he's supposed to go back to the past again and become the young version of the guy... Which means the guy slept with his own mother. Funny. But that's really the only way to solve the paradox: if the young hero dies, then the kid has no trauma, then he doesn't become a baddie, probably doesn't need to come back to the past, so the young version doesn't exist anymore, in which case the kid has no trauma, etc, etc... It's a never-ending loop, but it actually reinforces the paradox effect, rather than weaken it.
(Why the hell do these spoiler alerts only show the first word I'm indicating...? Even using double quotes doesn't help...)

My first nickname was Iki, back in 1989 ahah... A mispelled Saint Seiya character. (Should have been Ikki.)
Then in 1996 when I first went online, I quickly settled on a character from Tôkyô Daigaku Monogatari (a very interesting manga), a real jerk whose first name was Naoki (直樹, 'healing tree'). He wasn't so much a jerk as simply a normal person whose darker sides was explored without complacency.
Then in 2005, after a breakup, I shortened the name to Nao and changed the kanji to read 尚 ('furthermore'), because it looks like a one-eyed face in desperate need of more hair, and basically I'm always saying 'furthermore' in French... ('Et puis...')
So, basically -- my nickname is a funny pun. Well, I find it funny.

I don't believe I ever had anything against plugins, on the contrary...
I hate mods because they make your life a nightmare when it comes to upgrading the main program.
I love plugins because they never modify external code.
I don't know how to write a plugin, though. And I wouldn't want to look into it for now -- it's not time for me. I have other priorities...
But I love the fact that some of the features I'm always postponing end up in nicely made plugins. That's pretty great.
Anyway... Active Members enabled on Wedge.org :) Thanks, John!
Oh, and also thanks for reminding me (through your code) that I hadn't (yet) fixed the $_GET['title']/$_POST['t'] bug in the Like popup. Done now. (Locally.)
Also, a quick fix for the 'more' link giving out negative numbers... (Due to activemembers_num being higher than the current number of posters.)
