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

Excellent. Maybe if you drop Karl a line he'll have time to give you a heads up.

DX -- how many threads did you say you'd archived?

Will do.

Hi, I'm back.

ita, my profile address is public now. Feel free to send me the database schema (and the code, if you want and doesn't take too much space).

(Edit: and I'd also need to know which versions of MySQL and PHP we are using, as well as any special settings (php.ini style ones) that the code relies on).

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Natters one through six, although I haven't put six up yet. I'm going to try to do a couple more tonight. I just about had seven ready to suck, but all the fixes got wiped out by the last crash.

I have Natter 7 and 10 sucked. Do you want me to send them to you?

Paul, thanks for the offer, but I've been going back and fixing posts that have extended URLs or hyphenated combinations, so that they don't force side scrolling over the entire thread suck. It's easier to do it on the threads themselves using my stompy powers, rather than on the sucked threads.

Paul, I'll e-mail you the ERD (as a PDF) and the phpinfo page right now. Zipped code is 300K -- that an okay size for an attachment? I'll wait for a heads up on the zip file.


PaulJ - Apr 12, 2003 5:22:43 pm PDT #3786 of 10000

300K? Fine. No prob.

Done.

And received.

Now that I have the code, I've got to decide how I want to spend the hour that I have before hitting the bed:

  • Reading and understanding how does the Phoenix board work.

  • Catching up in Bureaucracy.

  • Catching up in other threads that are not Bureaucracy.

  • Watching "Alias".

In any case, I'm going into no-post mode only until tomorrow. Night all.
