I don’t usually call myself so I hadn’t until recently made note of my own caller ID not being what it should. Looking at CDR logs the caller ID on one of my phones changed in September 2012 from “my” extension to the extension of the phone device. (more…)

- When I click on Preview in the WordPress editor, Fluid makes a
GETrequest to the web server. It still uses the action address specified in the#postform (post.php), just not thePOSTmethod. But none of the form values are included, so I end up staring at a listing of all posts instead of the preview I wanted. Maybe it is getting confused by the fact that the#post-preview“button” is actually an HTML link (anaelement)? There is also some JavaScript that attaches to theclickevent of the link (see thedoPreview()function).

Eventually we’ll have to live with just IPv6 addresses, so this is an unfortunate regression on CloudFlare’s part.

Dilbert RSS
Since yesterday the Dilbert RSS feed no longer includes an image element, so I revived my feed of long ago:
That’s actually a new address, because the old one wouldn’t work in Feedly. (more…)

Blockquoted code blocks
I’ve been writing in Markdown for nine years now, because it allows me to spend more time on content as opposed to formatting. Using it with WordPress has required a couple of bug-hunt sessions, but overall I feel it has been a time-saver.
This week I spent a little bit of time experimenting with formatting code snippets. While looking into my earlier writing I realized I’ve had an issue with code snippets repeatedly. Today I took the time to fix the problem by changing the Markdown parser slightly. (more…)
