Cheers. smile I was just curious. I setup a meta description tag to mirror the topic/category/section subject/description a couple of months ago, but never got round to testing whether it made a jot of difference. I know the answer to that one now. big_smile

So is it the meta description tag that alters how it's listed/indexed?

Nice of you to offer to do so. We'll await your reports in anticipation.

Getting the exact same thing here.

Do they have a small version of that, or just the 32x32 that's in the download? Tried scaling that one down, but you can hardly tell what it is once it gets down to 12x12. big_smile

Incorporated it into the articles section too now. big_smile Does this 12x12 icon look okay, btw?

Or is this one better?

Wasn't what I'm was looking for. I don't want to get a country flag per user I want to be able do describe a person, team or whatever by using a country flag/country image before the name. Let's say I want to describe a match between two teams. I will use:

[snipped...]

Would it be possible to edit parser.php or any other file and add a new TAG called [flag] were you could add px limitation to 12px X 12px?

Ah, apologies. I misinterpreted your requirements. smile Just copy all the img entries in the parser, rename the new entries to flag, (except for the output which obviously needs to be <img), and add the height/width parameters to its output tag.

There aren't any solutions, to be truthful. You'll give yourself grey hairs and nowt else trying to get through their filters. Check any of the MTA lists, (Postfix, Exim, Sendmail), and you'll find the same answers. The deliveries will get binned for no discernible reason.

That prediction is pretty damned accurate smartys. big_smile There is also an indirect fourth category too, (closely linked to category three). Mods/extensions. Unless the coding and security levels improve big style on some of the mods, there are people who will be loathe to have to recode half of the, (what will now be), extensions, to work securely and as expected. I definitely fall in categories three and four. big_smile

Plus, to be honest, there's nowt in 1.3 that I really find a necessity, personally. UTF8 I already have. Search function isn't an issue. Extensions, they are fairly moot. Anything else that may rock my boat, I can easily add to 1.2* if required, which would involve less work than adapting 1.3 to takeover from the current setup. big_smile And those fancy uri's are definitely not on my list of top requirements. big_smile

If you look over on Punres, I believe someone released a mod for the country flags. (I seem to remember it had flaws, though. I could be mistaken upon that, however).

Never noticed that one, but I'd personally think, why not. Can't hurt anything?

Why are you using country flags within posts? Surely the user details segment would be a better place.

Yup. big_smile I've absolutely no intention of migrating to 1.3 anytime soon. (Or possibly even later, for that matter). big_smile.

Guess who could kick himself now? big_smile Yup. I'd moved the header.php further down, (as it seemed pointless calling the header further up just incase it was going to exit with the message function), and I had done a grep of header.php to check that $result wasn't used in there, but had never twigged to check the one file that was included via header.php. That's another one to go on my list of self inflicted injuries. big_smile

Thanks Smartys. smile

This is how the code was before I just changed it: http://outgoing.bauchan.org/unix/viewdownloads.orig.txt

That one displayed nothing from the while loop. The table was completely empty.

Exactly. I can't figure that out. big_smile The code in that link is now working fine. However, the db queries were just using $result for all of the db query results before, (and had been doing so for several months without trouble). I changed them to $result, $catresult and $dldresult respectively a short while ago to isolate them completely. Until I did that, however, the while loop was outputting zilch. I can't honestly see why that last query would have had it's $results, (now renamed to $dldresults), vars content overwritten though.

Can someone possibly point out what I'm missing here. This code:

http://outgoing.bauchan.org/unix/viewdownloads.txt

is now working fine, and had been doing so until some code tidying I must have made over the last several days sometime, but when I tried to view the categories a short while ago, nothing was displaying within the table. I had to change $result to $dldresult to get things working again. I honestly cannot spot for the life of me why $result would have been reset. Plus, this part:

// If there are no downloads in this category
if (!$db->num_rows($dldresult))
{
        message($lang['download']['Empty category']);
}

was obviously noting the result correctly, as the empty category message was not being displayed, and it displayed the empty category message fine when the ! was removed to toggle the test. So...., if someone could berate me for the obvious muppet moment I'm having, I'd highly appreciate it. big_smile


Cheers,

Matt
