SQLite is a library that's built into PHP 5.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

From the docs, SQLite looks like an extension to PHP. The install we're running doesn't seem to have it.

New Suggestion:

Y'know how there are people who don't like white-fonted discussions? What if we changed the "s" quickedit to substitute a class, let's call it "spoiler", that was defined as {color: #FFF} in the default stylesheet? Then, once we implement the css update, users who don't like whitefont could use the custom stylesheet utility to redefine the spoiler class to any color they like!

t on edit I see that there's already a spoiler class with that exact definition, but it's not being used for the quickedit.

I'm not sure why it's not being used for the quickedit. That's an oversight on my part. Let me fix that right now.

And then I'll look over the files you sent, and toss you the password in question.

Part of what I am trying to achieve with the rewrite exercise is to put all the HTML generation on one level, so it's easier to maintain. Right now all sorts of code, classes and pages, can generate HTML. Messy, messy, messy. Want to separate form from function as much as possible.

Quick update from support, will detail more later.

Oh, and Jon, I realise I never did any of what I said I'd do for you this weekend. More in email.

They said that we can go up to PHP5 on Plesk, and any version of PostreSQL (because it's not integrated with Plesk), but we'd be kept on MySQL 4.

So I'm even more pro-upgrade than I was before.

Got it, ita. No worries. Take your time.

Someone suggested to me that instead of paying the hourly conversion rate we sign up again with iStrata and migrate our stuff over to the new (presumably upgraded) account.

Even if we had two accounts open in parallel for a month, it'd be cheaper than paying for more than an hour of their services.

Of course, with a lot more of the work on our laps.

Which raises the point--why iStrata? Are there hosts out there who are stable but keep a more current level of the apps running?

I don't know. I'm tired just thinking about all of it.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

I've used ev1servers.net in the past (they're massive), and can recommend them.

I'm currently playing with css.buffistas.net. If anything goes wrong, it's probably my fault.

t later Never mind. My brain can't code right now.
