Editing Scripturizer

I had to edit the PHP code in Scripturizer to make it validate as XHTML.
The problem is that some of the sites use an ampersand (&) as part of their URL. XHTML doesn’t allow that in the code, and the & needs changed to &. A subtle difference to be sure, and what comes up on the address bar is still the same. However, it is a simple fix. So far all I fixed are ones going through Biblegateway, which is the one I would normally use.
On version 1.5, my copy has line 157 reading as follows:
$link = "http://biblegateway.com/bible?version=$translation&passage=";
I changed that to:
$link = "http://biblegateway.com/bible?version=$translation&
and viola, it now validates as XHTML.

PHPGedView vs GenoTree

about 1 month ago - No comments

Once upon a time I used to use PHPGedView, but they haven’t updated since 2009. Is that project still alive? Is it safe to use? There is a newer program called GeneoTree, which appears to do much the same thing. Perhaps not as pretty, but still the same thing, and more important has been updated

A MySpace, Facebook Application for the Google Android Phone

about 2 years ago - No comments

I talked how I was wanting to learn Java, so I could start making programs for the Android mobile phone platform. A project that I thought of, but is perhaps beyond my ability for any time soon, is an application that will tie in with MySpace, Facebook and expendable to other social network websites. Basically,

Learning Java

There is a phone platform coming out called Android, which is a project of the Open Handset Alliance. A number phone manufacturers are going to be making mobile phones based on the Open Handset Alliance specification, all of which use Android. To program for Android, you need to know Java, and so I am starting

Oh for the time to actually do some programming. I was looking at a college schedule, trying to figure out what classes I would want to take. For a single class however, there may be 6 during the same semester, and this is just the day ones, and 3 or so of which I could

Continuing my updates on the progress of my Lottery Program, I recently got it to parse the Mega Millions website to get the latest numbers. Basically it gets a text file, which I have yet to get the program to extract just what I want, but I am making progress slow and sure. I am

What Time Do I Leave Friday Updated

about 3 years ago - No comments

My What Time Do I Leave Friday program had a minor update today. No change to the main program, but the installer no longer chokes if your version of the .Net framework isn't exactly as needed (sometimes it would have a problem if you had a newer version). It still checks your .Net version, and

My Lottery Program, Part 3

about 3 years ago - No comments

What I meant to say in my previous post about my Lottery Program before I got too distracted, was to continue on about selling the program in a few stores that I figure are more or less a lock to get into, short of it being against the rules for them to sell it there.

Continuing where I left off with regards to My Lottery Program that I want to make. It also occurred to me while starting out the design there are several stores that I could sell it in if I can get it to a semi-professional status. All of them sell lottery tickets, so it would be
