DominoWiki update 02 Dec 2006

I have discovered a ridiculous bug in version 1.1, to do with page promotion. I must have been smoking crack when I tested this before. May my mother smack me upside the head and call me Nigel (no offence to any Nigels out there): the coding error is stupid.

The new release will be sooner rather than later… ;-)

  1. I bet you wish you'd listened to what your mother told you about mixing drugs and coding.

  2. Careful mate, leave things like that in and people will demand a refund ;)Ben Rose#
  3. Just reporting that I've put up some code at openntf.org in the dominowiki discussion that provides for for use of emoticons. It's a trivial addition really but I hope you can find a use for it. I'm hoping to be able to add a coloured text option too at some point but think that might be a bit more tricky.mark b#
  4. @2: LOL! Ah, but I have the Macbook now… all will be well with my code (!)

    @3: Mark, nice one! Will take a gander, thanks very much!Ben Poole#
  5. Ben,

    Not sure whether you'd rather I emailed this to you, added it here or in openntf?

    This goes in the WikiPage.class of course. It works but is broken by block HTML elemeents like LI. It could use DIV rather than SPAN to counter that but then you couldn't have colours within a line. Would be nice to allow any colour as hex or if it could be done from the web to allow administrators to create their own set?
