Hmm portable is not realy in there is it ? Last update I did to my home server was making the data more portable ... I was stuck with one Portable 250GB Disk over usb, I have over 1.6 TB of data ... dho ...

So I got my self some SATA Mobile Racks and a External EZ-Bay Portable 4-Sata Drive MultiLane Enclosure

Now I have a 1TB large portable storage over SATA II and +-2TB (raid 5) and 1TB (no raid) of storage in the server, the extra TB also is portable ... I mainly use the drives that are not in raid to swap data around, the drives are hot swapable and fit in to the External storage unit ...

Next step will be updating my storage on the server it self wink

Assuming that all people like the same color lvl's, brithness and contrast is just wrong .... *Some''Most* people just like there screen settings to be what you call *Badly configured*. (lets be a bit silly ... you are saying: I order everyone to where a uniform, have blue eye's and blond hear ... If they don't ... *Bang* ...)

I don't like lights around me so when its dark out my screen settings go way down (realy hard to read your site), during the day I set my screen a bit brighter ( then its readable but still ...). And don't get me wrong I love low contrast layouts, one of the reasons I stoped desinging is becouse *Most People* disliked the low contrast stuff I made  ... and I was unable to make annything look good using high contrast

Personly I love the color setup, in general I'm sure *Most People* will dislike it ...

Something like ??
http://doc.worldelite.net/lang.select.rules.jpg

It alowes users to select the language on the *Forum Rules* page and passes that language on to the *Registration Form*.
After that euh .. they can do it in the profile wink

If this is what you are looking for I could back-port it from Rev.Base to punbb wink

adding stuff to bbcode is not that hard

but hmm I dislike it!
It depends on the browser to generate the html making the output browser depended, and hard to use. Writing a parser for it is nearly imposible as you would need to check every browser and on top of that browser updates could mess up the parser.
But on the other hand that's probebly what makes this one load so fast ....

There is no bad technology !! There is however the bad and/or evil implementation of it ....

1 - Javascript
2 - Flash
3 - Java

Javascript is on top of my list couse it is abused the most to do *evil* or just stupid things.

Flash, euh simply couse I never been able to find a desend use for it and it is not sopported on all systems. Aldo I can understand how some people like it // fun to *play* with....

Java, simply does not have a place on a websites if you ask me. We are talking about websites right couse it is great stuff for for cross platform applications/games ...

Well, most things load as slow as possible as far as I can tell, and flash takes up unessecary time.
I could've loaded the page 100 times over, and still had time left, and had everything the flash gave with ajax. I mean, some flash is good: http://nighttowers.com/ a canadian friend did that, and although good, I only use the lofi version. Its much faster and it gets me where I want, and I don't have unnessecary load times and transitions. I'm not there for the stunning graphics.

7 clicks in to the flash app I got a error *unable to connect to db* so then what ? back button does not work, no link to click to go back or further, lowfi and start from scratch agen ? ... euh don't think so .... lets click the close button and look for a site that has easy to find (aka searche function of the browser/google works) and bookmark/coppy::past the info ....

source code I got from "moderate.php?fid=6&tid=9&p=1" ... "delete multiple" posts in a original 1.2.14 ver.
EDIT: to make it a bit more ... When only one post is available to delete.

I love edits

Glad to here 1.3 will work  with "application/xhtml+xml".

./msg ProjectServ REQUEST reset:deadline time:not set
<ProjectServ> request not accepted, project deadline remains.

As for the W3C validator ... right now we copy/past code in to it as we are developing on a VPN network. But thx for pointing it out.

not sure, they clame to be valid xhtml and apparently they are not. so it could be considerd a bug.

Using "application/xhtml+xml" duiring develpment could solve some of the problems. If pages are served as "text/html" most browsers just read the code as badly formed html, when serverd as "application/xhtml+xml" every x(ht)ml error will give a nice error page ...

edit agen: Some one pointed out that it would not fix errors like *<a name="9"></a>* simply couse xml alowes you to make your own atributes ... changed "problems like this" to "some of the problems" ... roll

I was disepointed with the results I got out of the *one* forum I expected to be able to do it.

There are several reasons way one would run punbb as true xhtml ... basicly I'm doing it to import/export data to/from other aplications (only xml files are accepted by them...).

Not only does punbb look like crab when being served as "application/xhtml+xml" it also has loads of problems and xml errors ...

Below are the results of checking this document for XML well-formedness and validity.

   1. Error Line 60 column 9: there is no attribute "name".

   2. Error Line 90 column 84: the name and VI delimiter can be omitted from an attribute specification only if SHORTTAG YES is specified.

      ...lete_posts" value="Delete" disabled /></p>

Maybe its a bug maybe its not ... I just wanted to get your opinion on it.

edit: added the validator quote wink
