Archives by Category almost working

The Archive by category feature is nearily complete. All I have to do now is figure out how to tell the page to go to the category of choice. I also realized that everytime something gets published with blogger EVERY category publishes at the same time instead of the categories that were added to the article.

Meanwhile, if you are still using Internet Explorer (including that tabbed browser imposter that came out), you probably aren't seeing ANY of the awesome stuff that I added. The official browser for this website is Firefox, because Explorer doesn't support SVG or VRML. (Netscape supported VRML back in the late 1990s, which was passed on to Mozilla, and then on to Firefox.)

BushidoHacks.com v2.0 - Click!

Finally! After much work, I have finally updated this blog! (Yay!) There are a few bugs to still work out. Blogger, being the cantankerous blogging software, doesn't seem to want to let it's tags for the last 10 posts, or archive, work outside of the pages you are working on. So I'm going to have to whip up some PHP scripts to get the tags to work. Right now, everything is a little primitive. The good news is, I finally got AJAX to work on this website.

I read something on the W3 website about Mobile AJAX about getting AJAX to work on Mobile devices. I hope the come up with something soon. Most of CSS works on my Treo, which brings me to my next point.

Access, the company known for the Netfront browser and now the owner of Palm, announced Friday to be "Access Day" to raise awareness of their Linux platform. The framework for the platform is called the Hiker Project. The platform will be a combination of some legacy, propietary, and open-source software. Until some screenshots come out, I'm not going to do what I did the last time I tried to install a Linux platform on a mobile device. I'm quite happy with what I have right now, I just need to figure out how to use pilot-xfer and to get my Palm connected to my mail machine.

I might be uploading some photos from the past couple of years on here. Finally you will get to see who runs this website. I have some car photos from a local fair and some vacation photos from last year I'd like to share. I just wish I would have known how to transfer photos from my old phone sooner. I probably would have submitted alot of more photos.

There are alot of great changes going on that you will see soon.

Let's get to work! :-)

Major Blog Changes Coming

I don't know what is harder. Having to find the courage to go to a long overdue dental appointment, or trying to update this blog's layout.

I'm making some changes to some old blog entries so that I can create a uniform style, add keywords, check spelling and grammar, so that I can try to attempt making changes to this blog.

Blogger's syntax makes me a little nervous. There was a reason why I chose to format my pages in PHP, but I ended out using JavaScript to create the advanced features which look like crap.

So, this week, BushidoHacks.com is under renovation. It won't be closed like the forums, but it will be making changes to attract more users to this site.

I really want to get ASUKA set up. I need to write up a Software Requirement Specification Document (SRSD).

Meanwhile, I need to see if I should still use Blogger or if I should switch to Wordpress. I'm glad that Blogger is finally using keyword labels like Wordpress, but if Wordpress is more efficient, then I may have to do something I really don't want to do: Migrate from Blogger to Wordpress.

But Blogger still has some great features. Moblogging (mobile blogging) using a cell phone. Automatically saving drafts. The power of Google's community of computer scientists and computer programmers. The network of users who write back.

I won't migrate from Blogger. But if the keywords post blog entries in several pages instead of posting once and using a database to call similar articles, then Wordpress may be the way to go.

But I should change this blog's layout before considering changing this blog's software.
