Ok, here's the promised export for NewsFire ;) First of all, you'll need Patrick May's plist parser for Ruby which has to be somewhere in your $RUBYLIB. For details on how to install and use the script and its requirements, please read the README.markdown I've bundled with the script :)

Some NucleusCMS playing
I've just started once again to play a little bit around with NucleusCMS but not really aiming at replacing this weblog with it :-) I just want to play around with its plugin system and its internals. The only thing that I'm really missing here with WordPress is a way to have multiple weblogs with just one installed instance of WordPress. It isn't really a tragedy because I could simply emulate this feature using categories and rewrite rules ;-)

Migrating custom node type modules
Today I finally started porting the modules I had written for zerokspot.com from Drupal 4.7 to 5.0. So far everything has worked out just fine apart from one little thing:
I added the modulename.info file to my book review module and there it was in the admin panel. Everything's great. Then I wanted to create a new node with this type and noticed (1) that it doesn't appear in the main listing but only in the navigation sidebar and (2) that when I try to submit the new node, I get an error similar to this one:
array_merge_recursive() [<a href='function.array-merge-recursive'>function.array-merge-recursive</a>]: Argument #2 is not an array in /opt/wwwdev/htdocs/drupal-5.0/modules/node/node.module on line 1916.

RMI Tutorial
RMI Tutorial
Was ist RMI? RMI bedeuted "Remote Method Invokation" und dient dazu, Dienste auf einem Rechner anzubieten, die dann von einem anderen Rechner in Anspruch genommen werden können. Bei diesen Diensten handelt es sich um Java-Objekte die dann am Clientrechner direkt in lokale Variablen eingebunden werden können.
Wenn jedoch eine Methode dieses Objektes ausgeführt werden soll, dann wird diese auf dem "Server" ausgeführt und das Ergebnis dann an den Client übermittelt.

Don't want IE or Konqueror/Safari users?
... well, then I have something for you ;-) You don't even have to write invalid HTML .... wait ... better not g Anyway. Today this weblog could not be accessed with IE or Konqueror because of a little typo on my side. The site always sent text-html as content type. I've never made this typo before so I actually didn't searched for it. Also the site still worked with Opera and Firefox which seem to ignore invalid mime-types and fall back to text/html. KHTML and IE browsers seem to take the content type really serious and offer you a download dialog or an useless error message if they find something like text-html.

QuirksMode - for all your browser quirks
Read more about "QuirksMode - for all your browser quirks" ...
I just found this site while searching for a solution to a small problem I had with the background-position attribute in CSS. This site is really huge, not to say enourmous. Peter-Paul Koch's site is about browser incompatibilites esp. regarding CSS and JavaScript (and so also the DOM). He describes these incompatibilites in detail and also offers solutions and work-arounds for these problems.

XSL parameters with PHP5
Occording to the XSLT 1.0 specification parameters and variables in XSL(T) are basically more like constants than like variables. Ok, bad naming then but let's get to the point of this post: I'm currently writing a small template engine based on XSL for a project. Here I use parameters for passing i.e. small language specific texts to the stylesheets. I use a small hash for caching these parameters to that I still have my re-declaration.

TechnoratiTags plugin for NucleusCMS
During the last two days I've written on a small plugin for NucleusCMS that adds a new field to the EditItem and AddItem fields in the admin panel to enter Technorati Tags. Stefan Koopmanschap has installed the plugin today on his dutch weblog. Because I currently don't have a NucleusCMS-powered weblog I see this as a testcase for this little plugin ;-)
