Forms With Elements With Form Attribute Names 
Tags: HTML, JavaScript, Web Design I commonly create a form element that dictates the action I want the server to perform, like <input type="hidden" name="action" value="save">. This allows me to have a switch to determine what to do with the data in any situation instead of posting and getting to multiple places. I found a bug in Internet Explorer 7's JavaScript today that introduces a problem with my naming scheme.

MySQL FIND_IN_SET
Tags: mySQL, Reference I always forget this mySQL function, so I figured I should make note of it somewhere. It's called FIND_IN_SET. You specify a variable and a list of possible matches and it returns the position of the string in the list. It's very helpful for sorting things in a defined list provided by the client.

A Rant: Two Things I'm Tired Of
Tags: Rant Recently, there have been a slough of "25 Great Whatevers" or "15 Awesome Ways To Do Something." Smashing Magazine does this constantly, and SitePoint is guilty, too. Many of these articles aggregate links to the same tired sites and tout some little nook of it as very well done. I mean, how many times do I have to look at Avalon Star? Jeeeeesus.

Hacking Windstream Install for OS X and Failing
Tags: DSL, Geek, Internet, Internet Explorer, JavaScript, Personal, Windstream I signed up with Windstream for Internet and phone. It turns out that they do not support Mac OS X at all because they only support Internet Explorer. The only justification I've found for this is that their crack team of developers doesn't know how to use document.createElement and they need to install an ActiveX Control to see how much hard disk space and ram is installed on the computer. Both reasons are totally stupid. Continue Reading "Hacking Windstream Install for OS X and Failing" on Robertdot … robertdot.org, 2008-09-22 03:28:39
