To do list

[tinyjo]

Website

• Add code to the journal and friends pages to deal with the case of JavaScript being off (easy).
• Put the archives up. There is (a) the easy method, (b) the very complicated method or (c) the OK but requires maintenance method for doing this. I expect I'll do either (a) or (c) soon (hopefully this weekend) and start working on (b) in the background. The downside of this is that I may not get (b) finished if I've got some sort of solution in place.
• Move the gallery db for security
• Look at the quotes page. The paid account for quotes that I use to power that is coming to the end of it's life and I don't think I'm going to renew it because I'm not happy with only being able to page back so many times before switching to calendar view - which is a poo way to view quotes. But I really like the easiness of being able to bang quotes into here and then post them up. So I need to either (a) do something clever with the quotes archive or (b) write my own quotes engine complete with client program. I like the idea of (b) but the one thing I'm not sure about is how to connect to any quotes db over the net. Perhaps I should look at the source for this program to get some ideas...
• Try and fiddle with the CSS to get a bit better cross browser functionality. Not having access to IE 5 anymore is really awkward because that seems to be the one having most problems with the design... anyone know a way of downgrading?
• Start a french dictionary using the vocab from the word of the days.

Computer

• Finish installing Linux. I've got a functional debian install in that I have got the command line running properly but I have yet to configure X (screen problems) and I need to do that to run Mozilla. Once I've done that we should be cooking.
• Go through my photos. Go through and name the latest lot of photos and delete dups. Work out a better organisation for photos on the website and rotate them a bit more.
• Go through email, file stuff I need to keep and delete the rest.

Perhaps this evening I might slump upstairs with the computer, rather than downstairs with the TV

I still have IE5 so if you need a beta tester just shout. Here and at home.

How many times can you page back? Might it be a facet of the style you use? I've paged back on my friends page (using a version of refried paper or whatever it's called) up to 120 posts back.
