To quote from Opera:
With Opera Unite, we [...]

After re-installing php 5.2.9 on Centos I realised video uploads weren’t working. I needed to change the max_post limit and the max file upload limit.
Lo and behold my world was shattered when upon changing the values in my php.ini file (located in /etc/php.ini) the changed values didn’t take hold.
After crying for a few minutes I [...]

Constantly forgetting how to do this so I’ll post it here.
To increment a variable in Smarty - particularly useful if tracking table rows and when to start a new one.

{assign var=myCounter value=0}{foreach from=$latestproducts item=product}{$product.NAME}
{if $myCounter eq 2}
{assign var=myCounter value=0}{else}{assign var=myCounter value=$myCounter+1}{/if}{/foreach}

In a sign of the times Microsoft today reported a drop in profits by a whopping 32%.
Sounds terrible until you realise that they now ‘only’ turned a profit of $2.98 billion! No chance of them going bust anytime soon.
I’ve spent the past week fighting the urge to format my laptop and install Linux. Windows Vista [...]

Sweet Suffering ****!
Have I ever done anything to deserve being burdened with email servers?
Please kindly make the errors stop.
Yours in Trust,
David Scott.
I’m running webmin on a server with Qmail and vpopmail. Of Course, in my long running battle with email servers, after a reboot mine decided to start refusing all connections. Telneting to the [...]

Well, finally finished the phpfox-joomla integration! Ready to launch it and … my ISP cuts me off!
Yes, the geniuses (geniii ?) up at BT Ireland were double charging me through two direct debits. When I (nicely) pointed this out, their solution, instead of cancelling one direct debit, was to cancel the whole account. There ya [...]

Runnning into a session timeout issue with Joomla. I’ve it integrated with fireboard and even though I’m still logged in on fireboad, when I return to the main joomla site I’m logged out.
The solution is the time out settings on Joomla - 15 mins.
You can edit the session timeout variable from the adminpanel in joomla. [...]
