Some people were having trouble with getting MT-Search to work with the new mySQL version of MT… I and a few other people WERE able to get it to work. It turned out that you needed the BETA 1.3 version of MT-Search which wasn't made widely available… until today! 😀

You can download it from Jay's site here.

After Mena persuaded him to do it, Ben has written a MT plug-in to display your Netflix Queue. (originally found at Jish's site)

I've always loved the appearance of the calendars to see where I'm at in my blogging history. Before this time, I've always hand coded out tables to point to my archives, or added on to previous tables that I had from Blogger/Greymatter. But now that all of my archives are in Movable Type, I finally got a chance to put the tables together all on one page. Calendar Archives.

I really wish that someone had showed me something like this page when I was starting to learn PHP. I could have saved myself from writing a lot of really bad code.

It's also got a really nice explanation of what changes are required of your code when register_globals is turned off. I'm slowly working through some of my old code and converting it to play nice when register_globals is turned off, and I can't be the only one.

update 8/5/02: I've simplified the code further… I had some silly/stupid stuff in there before…

For MT users, you can download a Related Entries Plugin which will allow you display related entries on your individual archive page.

Thanks to Jason, you can use PHP to parse XML/RDF feeds and display the headlines and descriptions on your site. Visit his site to download the files & see it in action!

Ok, I'm just about to go insane here. I'm working on a little mySQL project, and I can't even get as far as having the "application" (such as it is at all of just a few lines at the moment) to select the database.

I've connected to the database fine, but when it comes time to select a database, it dies. I've looked everywhere, but kind figure out why it would be happening.

Anyone run into this problem before? Have any suggestions? I've tried multiple varations on the following code:

Well, this just wouldn't be a scripty blog without a little mouseover tutorial. Here's a simple little mouseover script/tutorial:
(I should add, there are many many many different ways to do mouseovers. This is just ONE of them. I'm not saying this is the "best" way.)

I'm going to be working on a script that sends an email with an attachment, and I don't believe that is something that can be automatically done with the default mail() function… so I found this php mail class which looks like it'll do the job.
