The style switcher isn’t helping readability if people can’t click the links or see the site at all (in Safari). I’m going to rewrite the switcher in PHP instead of the JavaScript I used from A List Apart. I’ve seen it work great for other sites and it worked great here for all browsers except…

I’ve been getting some Tasks Pro™ upgrade orders recently. Some customers needed to add more users to the system than they had initially purchased. In some ways these orders are even more satisfying than new orders because these are people that have been using the software and like it enough to expand their installation. It’s…

It seems that the little style switcher I added is really wreaking havoc in Safari. Visitors get a blank page until the hit refresh a half dozen times. I saw this myself initially in Safari, but now it works fine for me in Safari and I can’t reproduce the problem. I can’t debug the darn…

I sent in my estimated taxes for Q1 2004. One of the joys of being self-employed. 🙂

I’ve made good progress with my forum and mailing list integration work. I’ve got the forums posting to the mailing list and I’ve got code working that retrieves e-mail from an account and posts it to the right forum. Now I just need to do some subject/thread title pattern matching and it’ll be all set.…

I’ve released Tasks Pro™ 1.1rc1 and Tasks 2.0b5. Changes in these versions include: Tasks 2.0b5 & Tasks Pro™rc1 Changed the field type in the files table to allow for bigger files to be stored properly. Worked around a bug in PHP 4.1.2 that was interfering with the logout page: http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=16043 More updated documentation. Added additional…

As planned I started working on the WordPress localization last week. I’ve created a modified version of the code I use in Tasks and Tasks Pro™ with a few improvements I had planned for the Photos implementation. I sent it all off the the dev list last week, so hopefully we’ll be able to get…

I’m thinking about having a wall unit and desk custom built for my home office instead of settling for something not quite right from a local furniture store. The office is basically square with french doors and two windows on the right side (as you look in from the doors) leaving two walls open. I’ll…

Not much this week; I’ve been away from the computer and when I’ve been on I’ve been busy coding (not as much reading). 🙂 MacDevCenter has a roundup of the LaunchBar clones. I’ve tried most of these and gave my $$ to the good folks at ObjectiveDevelopment. The folks at SnapperFish have announced their SnapperMail…

2 weeks ago I tried to switch to Thunderbird from Apple’s Mail.app. This experiment only lasted a couple of days before I went back to Mail.app. I still have the same complaints about it, but the others had some annoying flaws as well. I’m going to give Thunderbird another shot when it has an unread…

I’m watching Norah Jones perform on Austin City Limits (thanks TiVo). Awesome performance, I wish you could buy MP3’s of these. If anyone knows of a way to get a copy of this performance, let me know. I’d only heard a few of her songs previously and hadn’t noticed that her voice has a very…

Tasks 2.0 has built-in security, requiring a username and password login through a web page for the regular web interface and mobile interface and using basic (401) authentication for the iCalendar and RSS feeds so they can work with standard iCalendar and RSS software. Many people have requested this feature and it means you don’t…
