the 'thrope

started my very first HTML tutorial tonite (for technothrope.com). if interested, the first part is here. also set up the forums and did a couple images for the topics section.

i'm pleased so far with the first tute. it's insanely basic, though, and as of yet very incomplete.

still having problems with things getting stripped on return from MySQL. right now i have to compose the tutes in a text editor, replace all the apostrophes with HTML character coding because there's apparently no addslashes function and otherwise it won't save changes (grrr), then format the html i want visible with the kooky and fairly unpredictable <xmp> tag (wtf is up with that thing anyway? i don't understand it but it seems to get the job done better than <pre>, <tt>, or even <code>), save, copy and paste it into the 'thrope's web-form and submit it to the database. all because of crappy or missing addslash/stripslash functions. so either i find a fix or its back to the books to write one my damn self, a challenge i'm not actually feeling up to at the moment.

as wildly popular as php-Nuke is, version 6.0 seems awfully shoddy to me.

dear god, please somebody tell me they'll post some articles or tutorials or scripts or SOMEthing. i'm all worn out.


why won't people listen to me? i warned of the Taliban and al-Qaida several months before Nine Eleven... i even warned of the IAO over the summer, long before the hysteria we now see. now the shit is starting to hit the fan everywhere we look, and it's all YOUR fault, and none of mine. i can only kick you harder and see if you'll awake, you droll sleepers. i hope all you non-voters are happy with yourselves. now there HAS to be a revolution, so don't blame me if it turns ugly and violent. next time, put your money where your mouf is, or settle for a National Guard bullet where your brain is. Kent State or bust, it's a bust, jack, put 'em back and grab yer flak-jacket and yer gas-packet, we don't want no mo blood shed roun' here no mo. que sera sera, c'est la vie. ooh la la, are we all going to hell tonight? ma belle fille, surrender your corps to me tonite, a-fore we are forced to surrender our corpses and give up these bloody ghosts unto the salty dawn forever.


still feeling oogy. grog. magog. bakok! goomp. flubbehdeedubb. grgk. and, yes, feezil.
