Movable Type is now open source! This day has finally come and I’m glad to see that the Movable Type team has decided to make this switch to the GPL. It has been offering users and developers much freedom for quite some time (follow that link to read more), but it is finally truly free, [...] No comments. Read the complete post »
Much earlier this month, I had announced my first full WordPress theme to be released (the post does not exist anymore thanks to this post purge): The new theme I’m thinking of starting designing should look a little more modern (Web 2.0). As with my previous idea, I’ll be sure to design it so it’ll [...] No comments. Read the complete post »
Looks like another site has popped up offering maliciously altered WordPress themes for download. Weblog Tools Collection reports of Blogstheme.com doing something similar to Templatesbrowser.com. As usual, please only download themes from either a trusted site such as the WordPress Theme Viewer or the author’s own site itself. This way you’re assured a clean, unaltered-by-a-third-party [...] No comments. Read the complete post »
WordPress 2.3.1 is now live! This dot-one release fixes a security hole found in 2.3 along with some other not-so-serious bugs (including one that I reported and suggested a fix for myself but meh). I’ve just upgraded and everything seems cool. You can see the bugs in detail at Peter Westwood’s blog. And this bug, [...] No comments. Read the complete post »
Weblog Tools Collection has reported on a new Drupal module that integrates Drupal with WordPress. Yes, WordPress is by itself a great CMS, but since it wasn’t designed to be one, but instead a blog, Drupal is in many aspects more versatile, and with the ability to integrate both together, I can imagine lots of [...] 2 comments.

OK, I’m getting fed up of all this Internet Explorer crap. As you know, Potassium does NOT support IE6. However, my first upcoming WordPress theme and a slight handful of my future themes will support IE6, and all future themes from my birthday ’08 will not support IE6. Now to rant about my tag cloud [...] No comments. Read the complete post »

According to Mark Jaquith, Six Apart recently announced their move to release Movable Type‘s source code under the GNU General Public License, exactly what beloved WordPress is under. Something notable about this move is that since Six Apart is still the sole operator of MT, contributions made to its source code by anyone can only [...] No comments. Read the complete post »
PHP functions
Sep 15
Today we’re going to look at what most programmers call functions. A function is what you call in your program to tell it to perform a series of smaller actions, like echo(), substr(), mysql_query(), or your very own functions like calculate_age() or bake_cookies() (which we will learn how to create in the next tutorial). I’ll [...] No comments. Read the complete post »
I was just messing around with PHP and the very promising web application framework CodeIgniter, which I’m using to develop NOVALISTIC 3.0, and I encountered a funny parse error listed below: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_PAAMAYIM_NEKUDOTAYIM in D:\NOVALISTIC\3.0\ci\system\application\views\header.php on line 10 The first thing I (obviously and intuitively) did, was search PHP Bugs for [...] No comments.
