Developer's Corner / Re: I'm trying to figure out this tutorial (phP database driven website)

Looks like you need to call the link as QuestionID not questionid.  Becuase you are asking for QuestionID on line 16.
http://istem.comyr.c...vey.php?QuestionID=1

Also at the moment you are just passing the query string to the database (i could ask for question 1 and the names of your tables) .  Before you promote it or put it live read through http://www.acunetix....y/php-security-1.htm

Developer's Corner / Re: Feedback on dcmembers site

« Last post by justice on March 05, 2009, 10:42 AM »

Added sitemap, rss-autodiscovery based on html 5, wider layout 960 wide so screenshots don't mess up layout, and directed downloads to the page.

I realise the changelog is a bit clunky, but this way does not require any work from me to publish the changelog it is generated from the comments i send in and its available as RSS and plain text link.

On a WSB note I wasn't too happy I couldn't change templates from the admin section but with the Addon File Editor module that's solved now. WSB is ideal really.Breadcrumbs would be nice or make it clearer what section we're in, requires a bit of css fiddling.

Cheers mouser Am really impressed with WebsiteBaker btw, installing addons and templates is as easy as pointing to a zip file on your pc, and it's very flexible if you want to without ever becoming 'open-source complicated'.

Need to add some more donationcoder links in tho.

Developer's Corner / Feedback on dcmembers site

« Last post by justice on March 05, 2009, 04:48 AM »

Hey I finally made some time to update my dcmembers page with my ahk scripts I've created over the years.
There's some issues with screenshots being too big (or the page isn't wide enough) but apart from that I'm pretty happy with it.

So I'm looking for feedback for anything that can be improved, from finding things easier to annoyances etc.
The link is http://justice.dcmembers.com/

(just used a slightly modified template for the design - andreas08 it's called - didn't really want to spend the time to make something unique as I like the functional & practical look of this)

Living Room / Re: Twitpay.me comes out of beta and is live - send people money via twitter

« Last post by justice on March 04, 2009, 04:42 AM »

Ah yes clever clogs. I thought it was up to to 'receiver' of money to collect, but if it's up to the payer to follow up on their promises then it is indeed safe enough.

« Last post by justice on March 04, 2009, 04:27 AM »

So what happens if your twitter account is compromised and you're registered with twitpay? Can twitpay prevent people from sending money on your behalf? They say they're not a bank but is twitter happy that money is transported over their service? This is not a problem on DC because you pay on donationcoder.

I have this same concern with logging into services using facebook / google accounts. Especially google with google checkout, if google account gets compromised then they can login into loads of places plus use your credit card? Maybe I'm not understanding it right but it's a bit concerning.

Site/Forum Features / Re: Dc Member Blog Idea - Feedback Requested

« Last post by justice on March 04, 2009, 03:57 AM »

Reasoning behind my comment is really considering the long term whether there will be enough activity /ownership on a seperate blog that is shared as opposed to being part of the 'official dc blog' or individual blogs aggregated into one 'donation coder blog stream'?

Just a thought - dunno maybe i'm off the mark.

I do like the blog format.

« Last post by justice on March 02, 2009, 09:32 AM »

you said that you didn't want to use textfiles but for these other programs i think it's the least complicated option in combination with Logmonitor. You could have it run a download manager such as FDM or wget with the textfile to download all these programs as soon as there's a new .url .http and .ftp file in the folder (make up an extension). I don't know of any ftp or emule programs thart can read a list of links though, maybe it exists, if you can start the program with an url as an argument then it should work with logmonitor.

A more expensive option is to buy a nas like the Synology DS209 and install the download redirector at Place B and make it accessible over he net. Then theoretically you could add whatever to the download redirector (it's like a download manager that you run on a different location) and the DS209 would retrieve it - again not tried this but it supports nzb, torrent, emule, http and ftp.

Well that's it.. remember what happened to FastTracker II (survived on donations)?

FT2 has been put on hold indefinitely. [...] If this was an ideal world, where there was infinite time and no need to make a living, there would definitely be a multiplatform Fasttracker3. Unfortunately this world is nothing like that,"

Found Deals and Discounts / Re: Better File Rename: $10

« Last post by justice on March 02, 2009, 08:07 AM »

Guess it's complicated to find a market for this.. one the one hand you don't use renamers that often then you will not want to buy one especially as file management tools are not casual software, and if you have a lot of renaming demands you might go for a more advanced/powerful alternative?

Think this is the sort of program that would do better as mac-shareware. (totally not affected by any kind of experience with mac shareware or this program  )

Got any experience with these? size of community, how long between swaps, security of systems etc? It's really hard to trust these things I find, plus the hassle of packing the things have put me off from using them.

It's what i use on occasion, even if you don't have two pcs on at the same time it saves you time because as soon as you turn on the pc at place a, dropbox will sync and the files will be loaded then - also uTorrent can move files out of the folder when they're loaded keeping it nice and tidy.
