Ramblings of a Wannabe Geek

I have been transfering data from our old website software into the new Drupal version, when I came across an issue I hadn't even considered. Entering 1000000 (one million) as a reward value causes 1e+06 to be displayed on the results page. Not an ideal situation as a lot of people wouldn't have a clue what 1e+06 means!

I was re-configuring how people may use the TinyMCE module for Drupal on my site by creating a couple of profiles with different button configurations. The Anonymous User & Authenticated User had a minimal set of buttons, to help prevent breakage of themes, while the advanced user roles had access to the more complete range. I created a new TinyMCE profile called Basic, set up the range of buttons and enabled it for the Anon & Auth. user roles. The Default profile, created by TinyMCE Autoconfigure was set for the advanced role only.

Once again I have changed my website, and am now running Drupal!

At work, we are converting the entire website to run on Drupal after spending nearly 18 months in building what I was initially told was a proof-of-concept website in ASP Classic VBScript. At the beginning of the re-writing I was going to use v6.2, but found that there were severe (well severe for me!) deficiencies in the modules list so I have settled on 5.7 (same as this site).

I recently started playing World of Warcraft once more after a 6-8 month break. I am having fun, but can feel the urge to play excessively beginning to gain a hold. My flat is in dire need of tidying up, I need to study JavaScript a lot more and even do some extra work at home, but all I can think about is levelling my Draenei Priest some more!

Oh well, I can always stop the subscription again I suppose...

When I woke up this morning about 0630, I felt as though someone had kicked me hard in the stomach. Before I was fully compos mentis, I had the urge to vent what I thought was just gas, however a little alarm bell rang and I decided that I would get up and go into the bathroom first - just in case. (Be warned - I can get rather graphic with the descriptions further in this post!)
