HTML, WebDev, etc.

Figured I’d just consolidate a couple of quick links into one post:

Simon Willison unveiled Safe HTML Checker last week.  It’s a script that makes it possible for people to use HTML in their comments without the worry of them being able to destroy your site layout.  Basically, it only allows structural markup, not presentational.  Certainly looks interesting, though I don’t know how compatible it is with pMachine.

Hiveware apparently has a new version of their email encoder out: Enkoder.  This one goes beyond merely “breaking up and printing out a standard mailto: tag” and instead “generates a unique and random key and ties that to an encrypted array containing your address for even better protection”.  Very nice.

This is an older entry and as such, it may be by a guest author or contain formatting problems / extraneous code. If you notice something wrong with the entry, please use the Contact page to let me know the entry title and issue.

First - How did you get smilies on comments - I MUST HAVE IT ON MINE!

Next, that HTML thing is cool and all but what Id really like is an actual spell checker (like checks words).  That would really help people like me that cant spell worth crap and are too lazy to look it up.

Cheers!

Check out this thread about Smilies in the pMachine forums.  It’s a relatively easy hack to implement - you just need to go collect your own smilie graphics.
