The 5-way navigator is absolutely splendid. I never even reach for the stylus unless I need to jot something in DiddleBug. This interaction control is by far the best I’ve ever used on a handheld, it fundamentally changes the nature of the machine to a one-handed device (except for typing in information). Any Palm OS…

I uploaded the wrong zip file for 1.8.1b1 – fixing… UPDATE: Ok, should be fixed now. Many apologies – not enough sleep last night. 😳 If you are seeing a ‘Reports’ item in the menu – you got the wrong zip file, go get a new one. I accidentally zipped the one I had started…

I’ve released tasks version 1.8.1b1. This release has two changes in it, both iCalendar related. As previously mentioned, I successfully added the ability to display calendars that require 401 authentication to PHP iCalendar. I also added a DTSTART element to the unscheduled VTODO items as this is now a required in iCal 1.5.1. I’ve tested…

Any Treo 600 developers out there? I want to get the definitive answer on whether or not I can use my USB-Sync cable. I don’t want to risk hurting the 600, but I also don’t want to shell out for duplicates of the equipment I bought in the last few months. The word I got…

tasks Version 1.8.1b1 has been released. This adds 401 Authentication to PHP iCalendar

Note: Thanks to a mention on Slashdot, I’ve mirrored this over here. My Treo 600 showed up today. Yummy! 😎 I’ve been really looking forward to this phone. I placed my order the moment I heard they were available and now received it less than a week later. The discount for existing Treo users is…

While hanging out with Adam tonight, I spent some time working on adding 401 authetication to PHP iCalendar. This was not as straight forward as I initially thought. 401 authentication (also referred to as Basic or .htaccess authentication) is the little Username/Password box that pops up on some web sites. It is the most common…

It appears that iCal 1.5.1 now requires a DTSTART property on VTODO items. If it does not have this and you have a lot of VTODO items in your calendar, iCal will just hang. I’ve got no idea why they decided to make this required. PHP iCalendar, Mozilla Calendar and older versions of iCal sure…

If you got here via MacInTouch, you should be aware that the reader’s comments that referenced tasks were slightly innacurate. [Joshua Brauer] Alan Newman might look at a solution that utilizes Apple’s iCal. I recently started looking at Alex King’s PHP-based product Tasks. It includes PHP iCalendar which produces files in iCalendar format. In my…

I knew that PHP iCalendar didn’t support 401 authentication for web calendars, but I didn’t realize it was going to be a problem with using the web cals from within the same .htaccess realm and it appears that it is. 🙁 At this point I don’t want to work around this. Having a live iCalendar…

I’ve released tasks version 1.8 (was going to be 1.7.5). This includes a lot of great improvements from version 1.7.2: More languages! (Catalan, Dutch, English, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Japanese (Shift JIS), Korean, Russian, Traditional Chinese) Quick Search from the sidebar Uses dynamic data for iCalendar instead of writing to a file (don’t need to…

Digital Outback Photo has a quick review of the Canon 28-135mm IS lens on their Canon 300D page. Thanks to PhotographyBLOG for the link. I use the 28-135mm as my standard lens and I like it quite a bit. I always get a kick out of reading commentary on software development nuances like this. This…

Through the RSS feeds for search results from Feedster, I came across this post on Rands in Repose that has a number of kind things to say about tasks. Thanks Rands and thanks Feedster. 🙂 This post is part of the project: Tasks Pro™. View the project timeline for more context on this post.
