Buffistas Building a Better Board
Do you have problems, concerns or recommendations about the technical side of the Phoenix? Air them here. Compliments also welcome.
To-do list
Anyone with IE currently open and being sulky, clear your cache. The code is back to what it was before, so it's just the last remnants being balky about quitting this mortal coil.
John, while I can see the trek reference bothers you, I doubt he transcribes with search engines in mind.

Oh yeah but that's going too far. If he describes Buffy's expression as "pissed off" where Joss had put "exasperated" then that's OK, but when he's trying to be funny and clever,
and
he's writing
I have merely transcribed what appeared on my screen, with help from the closed captions.
at the top, he's making me mad.
But I'm just mad because I only logged in to say I couldn't find my tape of
The Zeppo.
It's at work. But I know I'm right. But I can't prove it.
John, I'm with you on this one (about this particular quote) and I'll check to see if I still have that tape in the morning.
But yeah, confirmation before making changes is a good thing.
FWIW, I saw the quote a while ago and thought what John thought, but didn't say anything. I'm not up for downloading the ep to confirm my recall of it, though.
If we ever get the caching thing set up, we should send an e-mail to SpikeMe to see if that fixes her problems.
OK, I've seen the episode umpteen times and John is definitely right. There is a tiny pause but that's a typical Xander mannerism. It's like "Jimmy Olsen jokes're...pretty much going to be lost on you". It's DEFINITELY not "Sir".
The new feature, where we can set the number of posts per page? The one I thought I was silly enough to skip its announcement and therefore accidentally discovered only this morning, but only by skimming here discovered that it's actually brand new?
Well, it rocks. Like a thing that rocks. Thank you, ever so much, all those who are involved with bettering this already wonderful place.
[Edit: and not-native-English-listener-me have always heard that line the way John and co do, FWIW.]
The Zeppo
DVD subtitles agree with John, and FWIW, my ears do too. Now I must nap, for it is exhausting being noble enough to watch Buffy before work.
Quote updated.
John -- forgot to give you this for your coding:
class Quote {
var $id;
var $char; // character saying the quotation
var $quote; // quotation text
var $season; // quotation season
var $episode; // episode number
var $title; //episode title
}
Thanks, for both of those things.
Hey, in the table you showed me yesterday, the
show_name
thing, is that just a y/n which determines whether the character's names come up, to solve that blank-character-name, tautologous-character-name thing, or am I missing something?
