  1. Re:Yeah Yeah... on PHP 5 Beta 1 · · Score: 1

    Ahh yes, much better, saves cpu cycles checking for the file. Thank YOU for the tip :)

  2. Re:Yeah Yeah... on PHP 5 Beta 1 · · Score: 2, Informative
    Yep. It has one drawback though, and that is all requests are handled by servlet.php. If you have an images/ directory, you'll have to put code in your servelet.php to include those files!
    A more flexable approach I use for the same effect is a .htaccess :

    RewriteEngine on
    # if requested resource doesn't exist
    RewriteCond /%{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    # redirect to default request handler
    RewriteRule ^(.+) /logic.php

    This means if you request /page.html and page.html exists it serves it. If it doesn't exist the request is handled by /logic.php. You can then either serve up some content based on the url or return a 404 header.

    I don't mind so much the fact that you can't have servlet-like objects which handle entire sections of your URLspace
    You can! Use a PHP file instead of a directory for your DocumentRoot in apache.
    I.e DocumentRoot /var/www/servlet.php
    Now all requests are handled by servlet.php.

  4. Open Development on What is Open Source? · · Score: 3, Insightful

    is what open source is really about. I have seen quite a few "Open Source" projects - code released under the GPL - that have been closed development and absolutly useless as an open source project because of this.

  5. Idle Scan on What's Behind The Odd Data? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    This couldn't have anything to do with idle scanning could it?
    Idle scanning doesn't require a valid source IP address.

  6. Re:Anti-whore Article Text in case of slashdotting on KnoppiXMAME 1.0 Released · · Score: 1

    Yes. It will be released at LinuxTag. see this post for more infomation.

  7. Re:This could be the beginning of standards on Microsoft Kills Off Mac IE, Blames Safari · · Score: 1

    No. You are saying that there are more Mac web developers than windows web developers.
    Becasue there are a lot more Windows users than mac users, Anybody is more likely to be a Windows user than a Mac user, including web developers.

  8. You're applying for the wrong jobs. on Ageism in IT? · · Score: 1

    Sure some kids may beat you our of a coding job, but thats why you should apply for jobs "higher up the ladder" so to speak.

    It may not be as fun as coding, but I'm talking about the project manager type jobs, where experience _is_ more imporntant than anything else, and it's one job that someone straight out of college couldn't do as well as someone who has been around for a while.

  9. Not about the history of the internet.. on A Brief History of the Internet · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    ... but about the uncertain future

    Even more authorative
    GoogleGuy saying its FUD :
    "I think Andrew Orlowski is taking a comment and taking it in the direction that he wants to go. I would take that article with a grain of salt.
    GoogleGuy, going for understatement. :) "

  11. Re:Ev from Blogger on Google To Create "Blog" Search; Potentially Remove From Main · · Score: 1

    And so has GoogleGuy the google employee

    They are creating a new blog index, but noone said anything about removing them from the main index. They havn't removed news from the main index.

  12. Re:Anyone know when KnoppixKDE will be out? on Knoppix 3.2 Available · · Score: 1

    I made the first KnoppixKDE, and another one will be out in a while, but i'm busy at the moment. If someone else wants to have a go, it's just a matter of reading the remastering howtos, and apt-get removing and apt-get installing kde programs.

  13. In New Zealand: on Great Surplus Stores? · · Score: 1

    Surplustronics is the ultimate surplus store.

  14. IE on Hyatt Discusses Tabs · · Score: 5, Interesting

    Pretty soon, Internet Explorer will be the only browser without tabs. I wonder how long it will be before Microsoft realises that - yes - tabs are good.

  15. Re:Hrm.. on Robot Plane Makes Unaided U.S.-Australia Crossing · · Score: 1

    I saw on sky news Austraila that it might stay there for the coast guard. Austraila would buy it of course.

  16. There is a way on Music Industry Raids Taiwan Campuses For MP3s · · Score: 3

    I'm sure they will find a way to evade the athorities. I just hope it isn't a sony memory stick somewhere where the sun don't shine.

  17. Sure fire way to good PR on Getting Good PR for A Small Company? · · Score: 1

    I think a good way to get PR is to give your product away and make it GPL/Open source, Free for everyone to use, and that way you wil also have a large customer base :-)
