Site Updates

20September2005 [directLink] [personal]

Managed to recode the site’s PHP backend, and converted to XHTML1.1 while I was at it (and am pretty sure everything validates). There’s not a lot of difference at the frontend, the main thing is the way ?bits are handled.

  • The current ?bits title now appears as the page’s title: good for the browser and even better for search engines
  • ?bits can now be viewed in two main different ways (and further broken down): either by individual post or by a whole month.
  • If you call ?bits or ?bits=category it will display the most recent post, and give you navigation options back and forth through the selected category. Further, fine print at the bottom explains what you’re viewing
  • Update: the RSS feed now gets any links (hrefs or img srcs) with absolute URI info, so if I choose to stick any images in my posts they’ll be viewable in a feed reader too

Also uploaded a page to petermhoward.com/.net (which for now is a cheat and redirects to this site anyway) which contains my current contact details, and hopefully will always do so. The idea is that petermhoward.com is me, wintermute.com.au is this site I do… Check it out for a funky photo
