Search options (Page 3 of 8)

well, I assumed that it was me - that I did something to break the editor, so I shaved it down to next to nothing, the bare essentials, 15 lines of code just for testing, but the problem persisted.

I then decided to "spy" on some of the other commonly used boards on the net:

phpBB
Invision Power Board (IPB)
madtracker.org (custom)

(also looked at miniBB and two or three others, but found no others with real BBcode editing)

... they ALL suffer from this new bug, so now I'm assuming it's a bug in IE6 SP2 under WinXP SP2.

I guess there's nothing I can/should do about this, then? I guess we can only hope m$ is going to fix it? ... they introduce new bugs every time they update IE!

Good argument, but the search engine problem remains.

hmm, now it's giving me problems in IE ... doubleclicking to select some text, then applying, say, bold - works fine ... but left-drag to select some text, then apply bold, and - oops - the text is deselected. Annoying. I can't figure out why. Any ideas?

Fixed (?)

It's a weird little Mozilla bug - if your onClick event on Button objects don't return false, it submits the form, apparently ... only Submit objects are supposed to do that, afaik...

Just uploaded again - now has actual buttons, with state (open/close) indication on them ... tested in Mozilla Firebird and IE6. A small bug in IE will cause selection to disappear if you select everything and then apply a style, such as bold. No cure, as far as I can figure. But also no big, I guess. Everything else seems to work. Feedback, anyone?

Good - as said, those features only work under IE ... I don't know if it's even possible to implement under Firefox?

$subject = "ALMOST ALL UPPERCASE dude";
$subject_upper = strtoupper($subject);
$count = 0;
for ($i=0; $i<strlen($subject); $i++)
   if ($subject[$i] == $subject_upper[$i])
      $count++;
if ($count / strlen($subject) > 0.9)
   echo "stop right there, you uppercase MORON!";

or something? (I didn't test that)

Stemmers are available for a number of different languages here - however, they're available only in C and Java, so someone would have to translate them to PHP ... or you could use stem-php (A PHP module) if you know how to build it, and if you have root access to install it on your server...

I've updated the mod (see edited post at the beginning of this page) to resolve some warnings that would occur when editing an existing post.

anyone been testing this?
